  Bentham, Kant, and the right to communicate
 
 
Title: Bentham, Kant, and the right to communicate
Author: Splichal, Slavko
Appeared in: Critical review
Paging: Volume 15 (2003) nr. 3-4 pages 285-305
Year: 2003
Contents: Bentham favored a free press as an instrument of public control of the state, in the interest of the general happiness. Kant favored free public discussion as an instrument for the development and expression of autonomous rationality. But a free press embodied in the property rights of the owners of the press may well fail to achieve either Benthamite or Kantian goals. Such goals lead to a personal right to communicate rather than to a corporate right to press freedom.
