The Way

This article investigates the discursive production of “the silent majority” as a collective subject of Right-wing politics in the context of free speech controversies on U.S. college campuses. The discussion that follows examines the way the populist rhetoric, reified in the speech/silence dichotomy, focalizes partisan dissent and resentment and seeks to restore the nation’s past glory that was allegedly lost to political correctness and identity politics.

The Right

Abstract Student protests have developed on campuses throughout the country in response to controversial speakers. Overwhelmingly, these protests have been framed as conflicts over the right to free speech and the importance of free inquiry on college campuses. This essay reframes conflicts like these as moral disagreements over the role of individuals and institutions in producing and disseminating knowledge that supports or undermines justice within a pluralistic, democratic society. Using the specific case of Charles Murray’s visit to Middlebury College in spring 2017 and drawing insight from social moral epistemology, the essay aims to clarify the moral concerns at stake in clashes over controversial speakers and to identify possibilities to advance the moral aims of institutions of higher education in response to such events.
