Gitlow vs. New York
[ send me this essay ]
An 11 page paper arguing the validity of the Supreme Court decision of this case. Gitlow v. New York was decided in 1925 and is studied today as a classic case of the limits of the freedom of speech guaranteed under the First Amendment. New York tried and convicted Benjamin Gitlow on charges of criminal anarchy in two counts: one was for advocating the overthrow of the government; the other was for publishing a booklet doing the same. The reason for the continued interest in the case is not so much the issue of freedom of speech for the individual, but is studied more for the value of both the majority opinion and the dissenting view of Justices Holmes and Brandeis. Each side presents value in their arguments, but it appears from the perspective of 75 years later that the dissenting view is more reasonable than that of the majority.
