Sinopsis

<div><p>"He was the most important scholar of privacy since Louis Brandeis."&#151;Jeffrey Rosen</p><p>In defining privacy as &#147;the claim of individuals&#133;to determine for themselves when, how and to what extent information about them is communicated,&#8221; Alan Westin&#8217;s 1967 classic <i>Privacy and Freedom</i> laid the philosophical groundwork for the current debates about technology and personal freedom, and is considered a foundational text in the field of privacy law.<br><br>By arguing that citizens retained control over how their personal data was used, Westin redefined privacy as an individual freedom, taking Justice Louis Brandeis&#8217; 19th century definition of privacy as a legal right and expanding it for use in modern times. Westin&#8217;s ideas transformed the meaning of privacy, leading to a spate of privacy laws in the 1970s, as well as prefiguring the arguments over privacy that have come to dominate the internet era.<br><br>This all new edition of <i>Privacy and Freedom</i> features an introduction by Daniel J. Solove, John Marshall Harlan Research Professor of Law at the George Washington University Law School.<br></p></div>
