Product Information
This landmark decision placed certain restrictions on the First Amendment's guarantee of freedom of speech. When Charles Schenck, a member of the socialist party distributed anti-draft material during World War I, Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes created the clear and present danger standard as a means of determining what kind of speech was acceptable, and what kind of speech needed to be limited by the court.Product Identifiers
