"""It is also a book that illustrates how far the distance is between social justice, as construed through the various critical social theories that operate around the dyad of oppressor and oppressed, and the importance of free speech. The fact that there is a tension between pursuing a society based upon open dialogue and freedom of speech and conformity to principles of DIE is indicative of the fact that many see the application of the principles of DIE, and perhaps even the principles themselves as carrying problems within them that outweigh their benefits. For, if the principles of DIE were so manifestly good and true why would they need to be defended through censorship?"" -- Wayne Cristaudo * The European Legacy *"
