Unsettled Voices: Beyond Free Speech in the Late Liberal Era
Editat de Tanja Dreher, Michael R. Griffiths, Timothy Laurieen Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 sep 2023
What kind of everyday racially motivated speech is protected by such an interpretation of liberal ideology? How do everyday forms of social expression that vilify and intimidate find shelter through an inflation of the notion of freedom of speech? Furthermore, how do such forms refuse the idea that language can be a performative act from which harm can be derived? Racialized speech has conjured and shaped the subjectivities of multiple intersecting participants, reproducing new and problematic forms of precarity. These vulnerabilities have been experienced from the sound of rubber bullets in the Occupied Palestinian Territories to UK hate speech legislation, to the spontaneous performace of a First Nations war dance on the Australian Rules football pitch.
This book identifies the deep limitations and the violent consequences of the longstanding and constantly developing ‘free speech debates’ typical of so many contexts in the West, and explores the possibilities to combat racism when liberal values are ‘weaponized’ to target racialized communities.
This book was originally published as a special issue of Continuum: Journal of Media & Cultural Studies.

Recenzii
"By drawing forensic attention to the structural conditions under which ‘free speech’ debates appear as debates, both the impossibility and necessity for speaking, writing, and being heard in colonial Australia becomes visible. This is a rich collection of voices, united in their ability to carve out ways forward from this impasse by offering critique and decolonial vision in equal measure. The collection powerfully demonstrates the role of anti-colonial critique in forging new paths beyond the persisting lie of terra nullius."
"Free speech conflicts are a recurring feature of highly mediatised and irreducibly multicultural publics. This exceptional collection of essays transcends the comforting circularity of normative debates about the limits of speech to examine how and why freedom of speech has come to act as such a productive site of antagonism. Ranging across writing styles and critical approaches, every single essay is perceptive. Taken together, they provide us with a cumulative project of significant theoretical innovation, and keen contemporary insight."
"The beautiful concepts valorised in the western world, like tolerance, democracy and free speech, are like the valorised beautiful lifestyles and privileges that come with them, enmeshed in the ongoing colonial, practical and symbolic violence that is their condition of production. The authors of this book, collectively and individually, take the concept of ‘free speech’, shatter the vitrine of sublime concepts where it is positioned, and lay bare its aggressive colonial kernel. This makes for essential reading."
