Omschrijving
This book applies a three-prong theory to identify public goods and values underlining the regulation of hate speech in the Czech Republic and Slovakia, two countries that share a political, sociological, and legal history.
"Hate Speech and Human Rights in Eastern Europe: Legislating for Divergent Values represents a carefully conducted research rich in detail and passionately structured as a critical study of racial hatred and hate speech in Czech and Slovak societies. It is intelligent, informative and full of legal sources discussed in political and historical contexts…It will contribute to the field of international human rights law, postcommunist constitutional and legal transformations and studies of Central and East European societies." - Jirí Pribán, Cardiff University, UK
"Pejchal’s approach to her topic is practical for real-world application... Her work could be a model for researchers looking to develop the issue, or aspects of the issue, further. Additionally, her structure could help NGO groups looking to build a grassroots movement fighting hate speech. What is true for the single reader is true for society. Education needs to be orderly to maintain the direction of learning." - Caroline Beshenich, Studies in East European Thought
