Freedom of Enquiry -- 2. Taking Offence -- 3. Subjective Authority and Unwelcome Facts -- 4. Power, Privilege and Identity -- 5. Friending the Enemy -- 6. The Sleep of Reason. . 330 $aThis book offers a sustained and vigorous defence of free expression and objective enquiry situated in the context of the current culture wars. In the spirit of J. S. Mill, Benn investigates objections to the ideal of free expression in relation to harm and offence, reaching broadly liberal conclusions with reference to recent examples of attempts to curb free speech on university campuses. Accepting that some expressions can cause non-physical harms, Benn also considers objections to free speech based on certain understandings of power and privilege. In its exploration and rejection of arguments against the possibility of obtaining objective truth, the book navigates hotly contested fields of contemporary debate, including feminism and identity politics. It challenges the dogma of social constructionism and examines current notions of identity, arguing that a case for fairness can be made without appealing to them. Offering a qualified endorsement of friendship between ideological opponents, Benn highlights common obstacles to civil and rational discussion, concluding with a rational, moral, and broadly spiritual solution to the cultural combat that monopolises present-day society. Piers Benn teaches Ethics at Fordham University, London Centre, and was recently a Visiting Lecturer in Philosophy at Heythrop College, University of London, UK. Previously he held Lectureships in Philosophy at the Universities of St. Andrews and Leeds, and in Medical Ethics & Law at Imperial College London. He is the author of Ethics (2000) and Commitment (2011). He is an occasional commentator in the national media. 410 0$aPalgrave Studies in Classical Liberalism,$x2662-6489 606 $aEthics 606 $aSocial sciences$xPhilosophy 606 $aPolitical science$xPhilosophy 606 $aTechnology$xPhilosophy 606 $aMoral Philosophy and Applied Ethics 606 $aSocial Philosophy 606 $aPolitical Philosophy 606 $aPhilosophy of Technology 615 0$aEthics. 615 0$aSocial sciences$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aPolitical science$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aTechnology$xPhilosophy. 615 14$aMoral Philosophy and Applied Ethics. 615 24$aSocial Philosophy. 615 24$aPolitical Philosophy. 615 24$aPhilosophy of Technology. 676 $a323.44 676 $a100 700 $aBenn$b Piers$0915577 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bEBLCP 801 2$bYDX 801 2$bN$T 801 2$bUX1 801 2$bOCLCF 801 2$bGW5XE 801 2$bUKAHL 801 2$bOCLCO 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910863161403321 996 $aIntellectual freedom and the culture wars$92490527 997 $aUNINA
