Abstract

Prior to the Second World War, freedom of expression and freedom of the press were mainly seen from the view point of being an active right of the press to provide information without interference from the government. Since then there has been an evolution where freedom of information is also seen from the point of view of the recipient as a passive right to be informed. At the same time, there has been an evolution resulting in an active obligation for the government to create policy and infrastructure that allow the freedom of expression to become a fundamental social right.
