"First issued as an Oxford University Press paperback, 1992."0-19-507711-3 Includes bibliographical references and index.Explores the three-way relationship between the idea of freedom of speech, the law of crimes, and the many uses of language, with particular reference to US constitutional law and the First Amendment.This is a paperback reprint of a book published in 1989. In this comprehensive treatise Greenawalt explores the three-way relationship between the idea of freedom of speech, the law of crimes, and the many uses of language. He begins by considering free speech as a political principle, and after a thorough and incisive analysis of the justifications commonly advanced for freedom of speech, looks at the kinds of communications to which the principle of free speech applies. He then turns to an examination of communications for which criminal liability is fixed. Focusing on threats and solicitations to crime, he attempts to determine whether liability for such communications seriously conflicts with freedom of speech. He then goes on to develop the significance of his conclusions for American constitutional law.Criminal lawUnited StatesFreedom of speechUnited StatesCriminal lawFreedom of speech347.302853Greenawalt Kent1936-259559MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910777023803321Speech, crime, and the uses of language3804721UNINA
