Democracy, Expertise, and Academic Freedom: A First Amendment Jurisprudence for the Modern State
Robert C. Post
Offers an account of incompleteness of prevailing theories of freedom of speech. This title shows that familiar understanding of First Amendment, which stresses "marketplace of ideas" and which holds that "everyone is entitled to an opinion", is inadequate to create and preserve expert knowledge that is necessary for a modern democracy to thrive.
