The authors analyze the legal framework that supports censorship, especially following the approval of the \"gag law\" (ley mordaza) and the 2015 reform of the Penal Code. Through iconic cases such as those of Valtònyc, Altsasu, or Pablo Hasél, the work exposes how freedom of expression, assembly, and information is threatened. The reader will find a rigorous analysis of repressive malpractice and a reflection on its consequences, as well as the response of organized civil society to defend these rights.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book documents and denounces the current state of censorship and repression in Spain. The authors examine the legislation that has toughened sanctions for crimes related to opinion and protest, analyzing real cases that illustrate the application of these laws. The work does not only focus on criticism, but also explores the reaction of society, highlighting the work of organizations such as Amnesty International, the Irídia Center, or the Platform in Defense of Freedom of Information. It addresses how these policies generate the criminalization of protest, self-censorship, and demobilization, offering a complete vision of a conflict between the legislative power and civil rights.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain topics\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eCritical analysis of the Citizen Security Law (gag law) and the Penal Code regarding freedom of expression.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eStudy of cases of judicial repression against artists, musicians, and political activists.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eRelationship between state censorship and human rights, with special attention to freedom of information and assembly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eResponse of civil society and organizations in defense of public freedoms.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eSocial consequences of the criminalization of protest and poverty.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is aimed at readers interested in current Spanish politics and society, especially in issues of civil rights and public freedoms.
