Resumen
GABRU, N. Langer L Religious Offence and Human Rights: The Implications of Defamations of Religions (Cambridge University Press 2014) ISBN 9781139600460. PER [online]. 2020, vol.23, n.1, pp.1-3. ISSN 1727-3781. http://dx.doi.org/10.17159/1727-3781/2020/v23i0a7802.
This contribution is a review of a book on actions which may offend religious feelings even if it was not the intention of the offender to do so. This book illustrates how, drawings (amongst others) on the face of it, may be construed to be a mere exercise of the right to freedom of expression or free speech in a democratic society. This is regardless of the content of the drawing which, to other societies, may constitute an offence.
