This book explores the enduring tensions between free expression and regulation in an era of disinformation, surveillance, and digital monopolies. It brings together leading legal scholars, journalists, and media experts to examine the normative justifications for free speech, its role in democracy, personal autonomy, and knowledge production, while addressing its evolving challenges.
The book traces the historical foundations of free speech, from colonial-era censorship to contemporary legal and philosophical debates. It examines the role of global tech giants like Google, Facebook, and Twitter in content regulation, exposing their lack of transparency and accountability. Key discussions include the dangers of algorithmic governance, the weaponization of fake news, and the judiciary’s role in interpreting free speech in the context of sedition, gendered struggle, hate speech, digital hate and violence and media freedoms. Additionally, the book features an insightful interview with a veteran Indian journalist on the shifting landscape of press freedom in India.
This book is an essential read for Constitutional law students, political scientists, researchers, policymakers, media professionals, and anyone interested in the future of free speech and expression in the world. It offers a nuanced understanding of how legal frameworks, technology, and politics shape the fundamental right to speech in today’s complex internet age.

Acerca del autor
Pallavi Devi serves as a Constitutional Law teacher at the Department of Law, Gauhati University, Assam. Her work explores the intersections of law, justice and societal structures fostering cross-cultural dialogues and promoting an inclusive understanding of constitutional principles and culture. Over the past five years, she has actively collaborated with leading legal and social science scholars, organizing two national level seminars in Assam: “Understanding the Dynamics and Interface of Freedom of Speech and Expression under the Constitution of India”, supported by ICSSR-NERC, MAKAIAS-Kolkata, Oil India Limited (OIL), and Numaligarh Refinery Limited (NRL) and “Violence Against Women: Issues and Challenges”, funded by ICSSR-NERC. Her contributions to legal education and advocacy were recognized with the prestigious Freedom Fighter Kunteswari Dutta Memorial State Award (2022), presented by the Women’s Cell of Cinnamara College, Jorhat, on International Women’s Day. In 2024, she was selected as a ‘Youth Delegate’ at the World Policy Conference in Cape Town, South Africa. This global platform enabled her to engage with world-class speakers, participate in dynamic policy dialogues, and contribute to workshops focused on fostering international cooperation and leadership development.
Alankar Kaushik, a faculty member at the Department of Journalism and Mass Communication at EFL University, Shillong Campus, has spent over a decade immersed in the fields of Communication and Social Change. His research passion lies in Participatory and Community Media, with a focus on amplifying the voices of marginalized groups through creative media tools. Between 2012 and 2019, he collaborated with UNICEF on transformative participatory media projects across Assam and Meghalaya, empowering economically disadvantaged children to share their stories and advocate for their rights. One of his notable initiatives, Children in Media Experiments (CHIME), introduced in Meghalaya, encouraged young voices to engage with participatory videos. His recent publication, a co-edited book ‘Narratives and New Voices from India: Cases of Community Development for Social Change’ (Springer, 2022), offers an in-depth look at community-driven development in India. Currently, he is authoring an upcoming book titled ‘Tuning into Northeast India’s Grassroots Community Radio’, slated for release by Springer in 2026, which explores the evolving role of community radio in connecting and empowering rural communities across Northeast India.

Descripción de la tienda
We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
