By subordinating individual rights to the idea of equal respect and concern, Dworkin’s political theory should be named “liberal egalitarianism” and not only be known as a version of, among many others, liberalism.

In what follows, I will examine Ronald Dworkin's influential contemporary justification for freedom of expression, which claims that a thoroughgoing right to freedom of expression is justified by the fact that it guarantees and preserves liberalism's commitment to equality by offering everyone an opportunity to speak, whereas any other policy, such as state regulation, would fail to offer this As I noted, Dworkin denies that rights follow from interests in particular goods, including—most controversially, given his liberalism—any right to liberty, an idea he dismisses as “absurd” (178–179, 268–272).
