Gregory Magarian accomplishes a rare feat by providing a valuable new framework and vocabulary for understanding the Supreme Court's recent First Amendment decisions. This volume offers a heartening glimpse of a future where speech protections embrace a diversity of voices and foster the dynamic change that is the lifeblood of a healthy, modern democracy. Powerful and deftly argued, Managed Speech is both a commentary on the current political moment and a roadmap for reinvigorating the First Amendment.
