Author: Steven H. Shiffrin 

In The First Amendment, Democracy, and Romance, Steven H. Shiffrin argues that the First Amendment should not be understood solely in terms of its role in promoting democratic self-governance. Instead, he introduces a more “romantic” vision of free speech—one that emphasizes individual expression, dissent, creativity, and the right to challenge societal norms.

Shiffrin critiques purely utilitarian or democratic justifications for free speech and suggests that the First Amendment also serves deeper, more personal values: fostering individuality, allowing for emotional and artistic expression, and protecting the voices of outsiders and nonconformists.
