Violence As Obscenity by Kevin W Saunders

Seeks to expand the definition of obscenity to include explicit and offensive depictions of violence. This work examines the public debate on media violence, the arguments of professional and public interest groups urging governmental action, and the media and the ACLUOs desire for self-regulation.
“Violence as Obscenity is a strong and provocative argument about a topic of major importance, buttressed with thorough doctrinal analysis, exhaustive historical background, and appropriate connections with a number of important arguments in the existing First Amendment literature”-Frederick Schauer, Harvard University

Kevin W. Saunders is Professor of Law at the University of Oklahoma.
