<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>The principles of freedom of expression have been developed over centuries. How are they reserved and passed on? How can large internet gatekeepers be required to respect freedom of expression and to contribute actively to a diverse and plural marketplace of ideas? These are key issues for media regulation, and will remain so for the foreseeable decades. The book starts with the foundations of freedom of expression and freedom of the press, and then goes on to explore the general issues concerning the regulation of the internet as a specific medium. It then turns to analysing the legal issues relating to the three most important gatekeepers whose operations directly affect freedom of expression: ISPs, search engines and social media platforms. Finally it summarises the potential future regulatory and media policy directions. The book takes a comparative legal approach, focusing primarily on English and American regulations, case law and jurisprudential debates, but it also details the relevant international developments (Council of Europe, European Union) as well as the jurisprudence of the European Court of Human Rights.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>[R]igorous in its attention to detail and demonstrates great adeptness in communicating the complexities of various regulatory regimes in a manner that is both informative and interesting.<br/>Communications Law<br><br>This is an ambitious and authoritative monograph that has been thoroughly researched. It is without doubt a seminal piece of work that not only makes a valuable contribution to the free speech debate now but will, no doubt, continue to act as a catalyst and resource for further research and debate long into the future. Koltay has managed to adroitly balance in depth authoritative analysis with accessibility. Consequently, this book will not only be of huge value to academic and practising lawyers operating within the media law and human rights spheres, but will also be of interest to law students, philosophers, communication and journalism academics, journalists and other media professionals in the UK and internationally.<br/>Entertainment Law Review<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>András Koltay is Professor of Law at the National University of Public Service, and at the Pázmány Péter Catholic University, Budapest, Hungary.
