English, German
The Free Speech Discussion Forum is an annual event that is designed to bring together prominent scholars from all over the world to discuss cutting-edge free speech issues. The 2021 meeting was hosted by the Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz.
Two major topics were discussed at the 2021 forum: Robotic Speech and Contemporary Threats to Speech. The Robotic Speech topic included examination of such things as chatbots, data-driven speech, deep fakes, and the potential for internet speech to interfere with democratic elections. The Contemporary Threats to Speech focused on a variety of topics, including the growth and power of social media platforms.
This compendium includes selected articles that were discussed at the Forum. It also honors the long-standing faculty exchange of the University of Mainzs School of Law and die Louis D. Brandeis School of Law at the University of Louisville, Kentucky.
