註釋The shared framework for all of these essays in the secular, individualist philosophy of Ayn Rand. Tara Smith is professor of philosophy at the University of Texas at Austin, Onkar Ghate is senior fellow at the Ayn Rand Institute, and Gregory Salmieri is senior scholar of philosophy in the Salme Center of the University of Texas at Austin. Situating their analyses within the broader intellectual landscape, these scholars take up the views of such historical figures as John Locke, Thomas Jefferson and John Stuart Mill, while also addressing contemporary clashes over issues ranging from speech on social media, "cancel culture," and the implications of "religious exemptions" to the crucial difference between speech and action and the very vocabulary in which we discuss these issues, dissecting the exact meanings of "censorship " and "freedom," among others.
