Recenzii
In their highly original critical approach, the distinguished authors distil recommendations on how laws on ... speech should be interpreted, applied, and reformed ... This work is a unique and invaluable resource produced by two editors whose scholarship and distinction command the utmost respect.
This is the definitive book for everyone working on and interested in the right to freedom of speech. It clearly translates the standards of international law into a guide for action and handles sensitive subjects in a fair and nuanced way. I whole heartedly agree with its recommendations.
This book provides an authorative account of international law protections which can bolster domestic defences. It sets out clearly and correctly the minimum standards that should govern political discourse and will enable improper attacks on free speech to be more easily recognised and condemned. It will serve as a vital guide for journalists, editors and media lawyers engaged in the struggle for world- wide distribution of important truths.
Amal Clooney and Lord Neuberger have produced a wide ranging work of great intellectual merit that covers a host of contemporary issues and provides insightful answers to many questions. It will be an invaluable guide for practitioners and academics alike, and an essential and welcome reference work for journalists, war correspondents and editors alike.
I am truly impressed by the exceptionally high quality of this book. It will be the go-to reference book on the subject that will play a pivotal role in stimulating policy discussions and will contribute significantly to the defence of media freedom and journalism around the world.
A tour de force. Erudite, exceptionally clear and well structured, by authors with real gravitas and experience in the field. The book's focus on the four key areas where press freedom is threatened could not be more timely. It uniquely pulls together media and international law; for the first time, international standards for freedom of speech are collated in one text.
This is a compelling, clear and authoritative book. It tackles key tension points head on and provides a practical roadmap for states, law makers and tech companies to ensure they uphold international standards when it comes to freedom of speech.
Freedom of Speech in International Law... is a lighthouse that needs to be understood, shared and safeguarded.
This book will serve as an invaluable resource for years to come in ensuring that there is ample breathing space for citizens everywhere to engage in what the United States Supreme Court has long held must be protected: debate on public issues [that is] uninhibited, robust, and wide-open.
Ms. Amal Clooney and Lord David Neuberger have produced... a critical resource for all those affected by national regulation of freedom of expression - notably journalists, whose work is vital to all free societies... the recommendations are very well-reasoned and demonstrate an admirable sensitivity to the range of approaches that societies around the world may reasonably adopt when adopting tailored restrictions on free expression, while not hesitating to take clear stances when warranted.
Amal Clooney and Lord Neuberger have in this superb book provided a key weapon in journalists' defence. They detail the key international legal standards, analyse emerging patterns in legal attacks, and make vitally important recommendations for change. This is a must-read book for all who support freedom of expression and freedom of the press.
In this mega election year, the publication of this book is brilliant timing. Have it close to hand and it will give you an excellent comparative view of measures for the protection of freedom of speech across the world.
The book draws on exhaustive research data to show how devastating the real-world consequences of misuses of the law can be...The authors of this book have lucidly articulated the goal of preventing autocratic regimes and overzealous prosecutors from manipulating the law to silence journalists... As they show only too well, some habitual state practices are "wildly at odds" with what is written in international treaties. But they make a powerful case that international law is not just the best instrument we have to undo the stifling of free speech. It is the only one.
