Gower Издательство: New York : LFB Scholarly Pub., Год: 2002 Формат: pdf Страниц: 306 Для сайта: Mirknig.su Размер: 2 MB Язык: English By comparing the United States and Canada, Gower suggests that a democracy's concept of the individual, the state, and their relationship affects the tolerance granted political speech. Individuals have greater freedom to criticize the government when there is faith in the individual and fear of the state. In countries where society is emphasized and there is less distrust of the state, individuals must defer to society when their speech threatens the social order.
