ARE WE EUROPE

Are We Europe Presents: Bridging the Atlantic (Online Free Speech)

Episode Summary

Bridging the Atlantic is a 6-part miniseries, created with the Bertelsmann Foundation North America, that will take stock of transatlantic relations today. Disagreement over free speech online has been a thorn in the side of a common transatlantic approach to dealing with internet platform giants wielding huge influence over our online communication. Over time, the divide narrowed, but more importantly, policy approaches became more sophisticated.

Episode Notes

Guests explain how in the case of platform regulation, the United States and the European Union have converged despite different perspectives.
