Скачать или смотреть Panel 1: Duty and Dissent: Public Employee Speech Rights (Permission to Speak Freely?)

A panel of experts discuss: How should we manage political conflict within the public sector? If an individual employee dissents from a policy decision, what rights to free expression do they have, and what rights should they have? Are there sectors of the government where the appearance of objectivity or unanimity is more important than the individual right to dissent? And what of collective protest, and of the rights of public employees to unionize?
