Susan Jacoby is greatly known for her reputation work in “A First Amendment Junkie” published in 1978. She is recognized in the society, especially by women because of writing a reputational essay which reflects her open views and ideas relating to the censorship of pornography in the society. Her argument is that first amendment is the most important thing and that censorship is a wrong thing. In her essay, Jacoby stands by her belief that it is very wrong to suppress any form of censorship against

The Information Technology (Intermediaries Guidelines) Rules 2011, functioning in addition to the Act, arguments the capacity of the Indian Government to proscribe ‘hate speech’. It is worth noting that disparate existing ‘hate speech’ provisions, they explicitly prohibit the ‘hosting, display, uploading, modification, publication, transmission, updating, or sharing’ of any information which, as per clause 3(2)(b) of the Rules, is ‘blasphemous’; such judicious reference to ‘blasphemy’ is unprecedented

In Africa, as I will discuss, capitalism has used but also modified patriarchal institutions, just as patriarchy has sought to preserve or extend those institutions under the political, economic, and cultural changes introduced by capitalism.

Throughout the story we find the word devil scattered, and not just on its own, being the person he met first when walking through the woods, calling people

In the Dutchman, there are three main characters Clay, Lula, and the other passengers who each have their different character traits and plight. The character can be expressed as individual’s personal values, what makes up a person’s moral compass, key values, what drives their conduct; changeable over time with focus, effort, education and experience.

By reading the following passages in the light of Foucault’s claims we can understand a crucial aspect of genealogy. This, is how Nietzsche thinks of the elements making up our normative codes as coming to be as it were through a process of organic growth. Moreover, I also believe that these words by Nietzsche justifies Foucault’s choice to employ a “biological” vocabulary to describe Genealogy’s workings. Hence, in Nietzsche’s view different sets of values will correspond and express different forms

inmate will constantly have before his eyes the tall outline of the central tower from which he is spied upon. Unverifiable: the inmate must never know whether he is being looked at at any one moment; but he must be sure that he may always be so” (Foucault 454). Even at night when they are in complete privacy the inmates still feel as though the tower is looking at them from every angle at all times. The prisoners are given a cell with walls to separate them from everyone except the people who watch

The Panopticom has become the principal model or metaphor for analysing surveillance. A French philosopher names Michael Foucault developed a social theory called Panopticism from
