Free Speech is an issue of our times consequently it is appropriate to ask what the term means and what is the history of the idea. To what extent is free Speech a mythology? Have we ever had Free Speech? Even when we think we own such a facility of freedom to what extent is such a belief true or substantive? Are we allowed not only to ask questions about Free Speech but also to challenge and critically discuss what it all means?

As always, Mythologies investigates what we believe to be true from a sociological standpoint with the intention of creating a platform for critical debate and mature consideration of the issues around what we believe to be true.
