Abstract

Guided by legal, sociolegal, and higher education concepts, we use an embedded case study of university administrators at a public institution to examine how they negotiate and institutionalize principles of freedom of expression and inclusion in responses to the proliferation of on-campus hate speech following the 2016 U.S. presidential election. Our findings reveal that an institution's legal context and administrators’ interpretations of law and law-related pressures shape their understanding of hate speech–related incidents, and the permissible responses, in ways that make it nearly impossible to consider and implement inclusion-focused practices. We advance the concept of “repressive legalism” to explain these dynamics and discuss implications for policies and practices that support both open, robust expression and inclusion for students of color.
压抑的法律主义:高等教育管理者对校园仇恨言论的反应如何破坏了对包容性的关注
在法律,社会法律和高等教育概念的指导下,我们使用公共机构大学管理人员的嵌入式案例研究来研究他们如何谈判和制度化言论自由和包容原则,以应对2016年美国总统大选后校园仇恨言论的扩散。我们的研究结果表明,一个机构的法律背景和管理者对法律的解释以及与法律相关的压力影响了他们对仇恨言论相关事件的理解,以及可允许的回应,这使得他们几乎不可能考虑和实施以包容为中心的做法。我们提出了“压制性法律主义”的概念来解释这些动态,并讨论了支持开放、有力的表达和包容有色人种学生的政策和实践的影响。
