Abstract
In his article, Richard Moon canvasses the two main theories of freedom of expression - one autonomy-based and the other democracy-based - and discusses their impact on the scope of freedom of expression. Concluding that neither theory gives a complete explanation of the freedom, Moon argues for a new theory based on the value of social interaction and community, and discusses how far protection of communication based on such a theory would extend.
