Fino a che punto si può ridere delle donne? Libertà di satira e sessismo / C. DEL BO'. - In: NOTIZIE DI POLITEIA. - ISSN 1128-2401. - 32:124(2016), pp. 58-68.
Abstract:
In a liberal perspective it is a commonplace that satire should not have
constraints. In this paper I try to resist to this idea, arguing that satire should not be
sexist and in this way not exceed the respect for women. I will proceed in this way.
Section 2 will explain what satire is, and how it is connected to humour and comicality.
Section 3 will elucidate the link between satire and the right to freedom of expression,
also analyzing the legal limits to the latter. Section 4, starting from a specific cartoon
about an Italian minister, will analyze if and how satire can be sexist, and suggest that
the mode of operation of satire and humour could be direspectful in a way that liberal
society cannot tolerate.
