Os limites da liberdade de expressão na sociedade multicultural brasileira

Abstract

The growing diffusion of discriminatory ideas that are harmful to human beings has increasingly raised the need to understand the freedom of expression limits. In this scenario, Brazil fulfills a peculiar role, because its primarily multicultural nature. However, talking about freedom of expression, its limits and hate speech does not mean addressing only those elements, but necessarily implies entering into the scope of several other factors, such as equality, dignity, culture and politics. Thus, this work, through analysis and synthesis, aims to identify and explain the contours of the free expression of thought in Brazil, against the backdrop of the phenomenon of hate speech.
