About this book
David Rabban provides the first comprehensive synthesis of the case law on academic freedom and the First Amendment at American universities. Responding to the judicial decisions and drawing on the justification for academic freedom as a professional norm, he develops a theory of academic freedom as a distinctive First Amendment right.
Reviews
Could not be more timely…[Rabban] offers a definitive treatment of the subject, comprehensively surveying the entire landscape of relevant court decisions and advancing a lucid and persuasive theory of academic freedom as a distinctive First Amendment right.

A welcome arrival…provides a careful and precise accounting of the state of the relationship between academic freedom and the First Amendment as well as provocative arguments about the proper relationship between the two.

The most thoughtful legal discussion of academic freedom ever published.
-- John O. McGinnis Law & Liberty
-- John O. McGinnis Law & Liberty
An indispensable guide…makes a solid case for classifying academic freedom as a specific subset of First Amendment rights…[Rabban’s] account of First Amendment law on academic freedom is likely to remain the gold standard.
-- John R. Vile Free Speech Center
-- John R. Vile Free Speech Center
A much-needed defense of academic freedom just when it is imperiled on campuses nationwide. Rabban, a respected First Amendment scholar, is uniquely qualified to illuminate academic freedom issues…[He] provides a welcome counter to the rampant confusion and controversy about this constantly invoked yet generally misunderstood concept.

Rabban argues convincingly that academic freedom should be seen as a distinctive First Amendment right…A much clearer distinction between claims that should qualify for the protection of academic freedom and those best left to general First Amendment doctrine is long overdue. Rabban’s book provides a terrific starting point.

A major work on academic freedom in the United States by one of our leading experts. This landmark contribution could not be more timely and more necessary.

Essential. This book clarifies the meaning not only of academic freedom but also of free speech more broadly and the First Amendment itself.

Indispensable. Academic freedom is a perennially contested subject, particularly in its constitutional dimensions, but David Rabban has authored a comprehensive guide to the law.
