  • Chapter 4 Freedom and Progress
    Chapter 4 Freedom and Progress The best road to progress is freedom’s road. John F. Kennedy The only freedom which deserves the name, is that of pursuing our own good in our own way, so long as we do not attempt to deprive others of theirs, or impeded their efforts to obtain it. John Stuart Mill To cull the inestimable benefits assured by freedom of the press, it is necessary to put up with the inevitable evils springing therefrom. Alexis de Tocqueville Freedom is necessary to generate progress; people also value freedom as an important component of progress. This chapter will contend that both propositions are correct. Without liberty, there will be little or no progress; most people will consider an expansion in freedom as progress. Neither proposition would win universal acceptance. Some would argue that a totalitarian state can marshal the resources to generate economic growth. Many will contend that too much liberty induces libertine behavior and is destructive of society, peace, and the family. For better or worse, the record shows that freedom has increased throughout the world over the last few centuries and especially over the last few decades. There are of course many examples of non-free, totalitarian, ruthless government on the globe, but their number has decreased and now represents a smaller proportion of the world’s population. Perhaps this growth of freedom is partially responsible for the breakdown of the family and the rise in crime, described in the previous chapter. Dictators do tolerate less crime and are often very repressive of deviant sexual behavior, but, as the previous chapter reported, divorce and illegitimacy are more connected with improved income of women than with a permissive society.

  • We Have a Dream Gertkeunen EN
    We have a dream Music is a powerful medium. It can evoke universal emotions and move us or give us pleasure, or it can be disorienting or confrontational. Music is a reverberation of life; love and frustration find their way into it. But music can also be a political weapon. Its ability to set people in motion is precisely what makes it a perfect vehicle for sending serious messages – against the war, against the evil forces in society, against intolerance, against racism – out into the world. It has always been this way, and we see it in every musical genre from Beethoven, Kurt Weill and Billie Holiday to Bob Dylan, Bob Marley and U2. Of course, the effectiveness of this kind of activism is relative. Sometimes the words shed their significance layer by layer and become meaningless sounds, and sometimes they become a call to action. Sometimes a piece of music turns into an anthem (for example, Jimi Hendrix’s version of the American national anthem as a symbol of the movement against the Vietnam war), and sometimes it is censored by an authoritarian government (from Nazi Germany to Communist China). Inspired by the 50th anniversary of Martin Luther King’s assassination, Brussels Jazz Orchestra is working on a musical project with human rights as its theme. We have a dream presents old songs in new arrangements. Frank Vaganée and Tutu Puoane combed through their record collections and selected their personal favourites from the rich history of the protest song. The music they have chosen is a strikingly homogeneous set: the songs are mainly from the late 1960s and early 1970s, and there is no punk, funk, hip-hop, reggae or hippie music here, but instead jazz and soul (Nina Simone, Stevie Wonder) and a couple of white singer-songwriters (Joni Mitchell, Sting).

BESCHASTNA GALLEYSPROOFS2 5/1/2014 9:09 AM FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION IN RUSSIA AS IT RELATES TO CRITICISM OF THE GOVERNMENT Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter. —Martin Luther King Jr. INTRODUCTION Freedom of expression in Russia appears to be slowly eroding, Russian Government promising to protect human rights, including the right to freedom of expression. The collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991 and the transition from “Old” Russia to “New” Russia were associated with many new hopes and promises.1 One such promise was the establishment of new human rights standards, including the fundamental right to freedom of expression. This promise was made by the ratification of the European Convention on Human Rights (Convention) in May of 1998.2 Previously under the oppressive governments of Stalin and his successors, Soviet Russia enjoyed no freedom of expression.3 Under Mikhail Gorbachev, Russia began a new movement commonly known as “Perestroika,” a Russian word that literally translates to “restructuring.”4 Perestroika ushered in a new era of hope and freedom and was heralded both domestically and internationally as an opportunity to change the oppressive policies of the past and establish new respects for the rights of the individual.5 The collapse of the 1 Mikhail S.
