The book explores the topic of academic freedom, focusing on the political violence and repression that affects intellectuals, forcing them to flee to safer countries.
Through historical, sociological, legal, and philosophical reflection, the author examines freedom of research and teaching, proposing a vision of “academic liberation” that aims to free the mind from discrimination.
The text is based on a series of case studies that illustrate how the political and philosophical effects of restricting academic freedom have often led to an exodus of scholars.
