&ldquo\;Taking Expression Seriously: Liberty\, Equality\, and Expressive Harm&rdquo\;

\n

The paper will discuss some implications and challenges of the claim (accepted by theorists as varied as Elizabeth Anderson\, Richard Pildes\, Jeremy Waldron\, \; Catharine Mackinnon and \; Charles Lawrence) that (a) expression can sometimes be the cause of direct\, &lsquo\;non-material&rsquo\; harm to persons and their interests and (b) the seriousness of some kinds of expressive harm make it reasonable to consider content-based restrictions on free expression and academic freedom.
