Lecture abstract
This lecture examines the moral-political processes of communication among human beings with regard both to the potential and to the illusions associated with notions of freedom. It illuminates the power as well as the risks associated with moral communication. Which legal, political, and religious factors best facilitate the reception of this spirit of freedom and its incorporation into people's lives?
