Pornography in a Free Society deals with what has been called the 'civil war over smut'. It addresses an issue about which citizens of Western nations are sharply divided. Gordon Hawkins and Franklin Zimring attempt to look at the problem of pornography in a wider perspective than that of partisan political debate. To that end, they compare two American reports on pornography commissioned by Presidents Johnson and Reagan, the first published in 1970 and the latter in 1986, with the report of the British Committee on Obscenity and Film Censorship, which appeared during the years between the American reports. They discuss the radical feminist challenge to pornography and the question of pornography and children. Going on to consider likely future developments, the authors argue that the furore over pornography and the appointment of commissions are part of a 'ceremony of adjustment' to widespread availability of sexually explicit material and they predict less social concern about pornography as time passes.

First published in 1961, Does Pornography Matter? consists of chapters written by seven men who were likely to have different points of view, and who would write with authority from the interest they represented. There was no assumption behind the question, and in fact each author has concluded that in one way or another pornography does matter. It was felt, as a start, that to judge whether this or that book was obscene, or a ‘masterpiece’, was not central to the problem. The purpose of the editor was to ask the right question, which is whether pornography matters. The result is a fascinating analysis and some suggestions towards a complete answer. This book will be of interest to students of sociology, religion and psychology.

Since the sexual revolution of the 1960s, debates over pornography have raged, and the explosive spread in recent years of sexually explicit images across the Internet has only added more urgency to these disagreements. Politicians, judges, clergy, citizen activists, and academics have weighed in on the issues for decades, complicating notions about what precisely is at stake, and who stands to benefit or be harmed by pornography. This volume takes an unusual but radical approach by analyzing pornography philosophically. Philosophers Andrew Altman and Lori Watson recalibrate debates by viewing pornography from distinctly ethical platforms -- namely, does a person's right to produce and consume pornography supersede a person's right to protect herself from something often violent and deeply misogynistic? In a for-and-against format, Altman first argues that there is an individual right to create and view pornographic images, rooted in a basic right to sexual autonomy. Watson counteracts Altman's position by arguing that pornography inherently undermines women's equal status. Central to their disagreement is the question of whether pornography truly harms women enough to justify laws aimed at restricting the production and circulation of such material. Through this debate, the authors address key questions that have dogged both those who support and oppose pornography: What is pornography? What is the difference between the material widely perceived as objectionable and material that is merely erotic or suggestive? Do people have a right to sexual arousal? Does pornography, or some types of it, cause violence against women? How should rights be weighed against consequentialist considerations in deciding what laws and policies ought to be adopted? Bolstered by insights from philosophy and law, the two authors engage in a reasoned examination of questions that cannot be ignored by anyone who takes seriously the values of freedom and equality.

Susan Dwyer's The Problem of Pornography is the first anthology to present a balanced view of the scope of arguments concerning the nature of pornography and censorship. Devoted exclusively to the topic, Dwyer's book presents a range of feminist and other responses to pornography from influential women and men, including Andrea Dworkin, Catharine MacKinnon, Helen Longino, Ronald Dworkin, Stanley Fish, and John Stoltenberg. By not promoting any single view, The Problem of Pornography encourages comparison and debate. This excellent collection stresses the complexity of debate surrounding free speech issues, and includes chapters that address the limits of both censorship and First Amendment absolutism. Dwyer's book contains: a section on gay pornography ; a legal appendix describing central Supreme Court cases in both the United States and Canada ; important legal milestones, including the Minneapolis Anti-Pornography Ordinance.

The policing of pornography remains a subject of widespread controversy. On Pornography provides a history of this policing and an understanding of the current debate. The authors show that obscenity law should not be understood negatively as censorship but as part of the positive administration of a particular practice of sexuality. This book indicates that obscenity law is not, as liberals claim, a mistaken attempt to police moral ideas, but rather forms part of the legitimate governmental regulation of a problematic social conduct.

In 1929, in the Criterion Miscellany, Viscount Brentford and D. H. Lawrence engaged in public debate on the question of censorship. Lord Brentford?s pamphlet appeared under the title of Do We Need a Censor?; D. H. Lawrence?s pamphlet was called Pornography and Obscenity, and he later continued his discussion of current conceptions of what is clean and what is dirty, and the problem of censorship in art and literature, in a further pamphlet called Nettles. Pornography and Obscenity was written in the autumn of 1929 at Rottach-am-Tegernsee, where Lawrence was the guest of Max Mohr. It was written as protest and rejoinder against the police raid in 1929 which seized 25 pictures on show, 4 books of reproductions, and Grosz, Ecce Homo, and even a volume of pictures by William Blake.Lawrence wrote to the Curtis Brown office in September that he was surprised Faber would risk the obscenity article, but he agreed to a suggestion that the name of Glasworthy and Barrie be omitted from the published version. The reference was to their novels being more pornographic than Boccaccio, who was wholesome. The publishers asked both Lawrence and Lord Brentford, Home Secretary at the time and prime mover in the action against Pansies and Lady Chatterley, to write essays giving their respective viewpoints on the question of censorship. Lawrence was apparently quite elated when his pamphlet sold better than that of his rival. The present volume consists of these two pamphlets, together with the kindred introduction which Lawrence wrote for the Introduction to his Paintings. It is the interesting and entertaining work on pornography and obscenity by the author of Lady Chatterly's Lover, a book which was banned and censored into the 1960s. It has been said that, "When Lawrence got going, he almost always went too far, but hitting a nerve of truth on the way." This work discusses the problems of censorship in art and literature by one who knew firsthand, and shows the genius of Lawrence at his best: it begins with his quick start, and his surprise description, "What is pornography to one man is the laughter of genius to another. He also asserts that "Without secrecy there would be no pornography. But if pornography is the result of sneaking secrecy, what is the result of pornography? What is the effect on the individual?" It's quite a ride, though, as Lawrence's work usually is.
