解説
A survey of the changing and charged relationship between pornography and legislation in 20th century America.
Groups battling pornography must demonstrate that the products they seek to ban are truly obscene and not legitimately protected by the First Amendment-a requirement that often leads to public debate and controversy. Author Thomas C. Mackey thoroughly examines the problems and issues in public policymaking, legal precedents, and the people behind them.
After a brief historical background, Pornography on Trial surveys and analyzes the leading issues and case law on obscenity from l957 to the present. Half the book consists of documents-judicial opinions-from key cases. There are biographical sketches of key people, laws, and concepts from Judge Learned Hand and the Hicklin test to Chief Justice Sir Alexander James Edmund Cockburn's judicial definition of obscenity from l868. The book also includes a chronology, a table of cases, and an annotated bibliography.
- Four narrative chapters discuss pornography in historical context from the founding of the United States
- Includes a documents section with court cases, statutes, law reviews, and historical journal articles as well as a chronology of the development of free speech law
