Why Free Speech Matters

Last week, the IEA released a new book authored by Dr Jamie Whyte, former Research Director at the Institute of Economic Affairs. In his book, Why Free Speech Matters, Jamie issued a rally cry, saying that those who prize free speech must once again defend it. In this week's podcast, IEA Communications & Marketing Assistant Kieran Neild-Ali was joined by Jamie in the IEA studio to discuss his work. He was also joined by Dr Kristian Niemietz, Head of Political Economy at the IEA, who himself is interested in cultural issues related to freedom of speech.  Read the full book here.
