The real definition of freedom of speech varies respectively
in accordance to the cultural and political structure of every country. Freedom of speech affects not mainly towards
journalism but other segment of academic faculties that involves writing and speech
publication. By considering business
writing publications and public relations, several International business cases
are already in the dilemma of political and religious conflicts considering the
fact that International companies are having their own organizational culture.
Having said that freedom of speech varies
according to the cultural and political background, International companies
must differ their approach in reaching the public through public
relations. As the United States of
America emphasized the freedom of religion by imposing the separation between
state and church, likewise government moral law is dependent on its moral
framework from religious beliefs and culture.
Indeed, the total freedom of speech ends when one individual or company
trespass the rights of other individual or company. Though state moral laws are partly based from
religious beliefs, religious beliefs on the other hand are part of cultural
references and background.
Noticing the evolution of education and the dependence of
human race towards logic, philosophy, and mathematics, research activities
flourished as to the standard of living and beliefs of human race. Legal references and journalism are more
inclined to the conclusive scientific evidence at hand. In this regard, religious and cultural
references are even more put to the test as to how contextually effective it
can solve universal case scenarios. Furthermore,
extreme speech liberalism is another aspect that may sometimes harm some government
institutions that in a way extreme speech liberalism will eliminate the secrecy
of once government and divulge any given cases that will affect the general
public as a whole. Another important
aspect of speech that can be considered essential for the growth of speech and
globalization is the relatedness of the actual speech deliverance and the law
of the land.
Uniformity of
speech-related to law is sometimes an aspect of free speech that is impossible
to reach knowing that law and order varies across global regions. The United Nations proposal of having one
universal law will partly eliminate speech law discrepancy but in a way speech
and law has its diverse existence in terms of culture and political background
and references.
Even the decision of the
European Court of Human Rights regarding freedom of press depicts the lack of
consensus among the party members knowing that members of the panel will
normally refer their decisions to their country's cultural background. But as a whole the fight for the freedom of
speech is still in the actual stage of bargaining and negotiations. Universal consensus of freedom of the press
is long been a dream of every country.
But in some cases, freedom of the press is sometimes misused in spoiling
the real meaning and usage of the press.
Finally, we can believe that freedom of speech in a global
context relies upon the humanitarian service in accordance to the UN freedom of
speech guidelines and by-laws that until today continuing ratification and amendments
are being implemented in order to connect the significance between the global
view of freedom of speech and the domestic cultural and political speech law consideration.
