A panel on self-censorship in the critical milieu, arranged by Norsk kritikerlag. Are certain individual opinions more acceptable than others, and what are the consequences of a low-diversity range of opinions?

The panel will also discuss to what extent there are works of art and culture that shouldn’t be written about at all, if taken in context. How can we disagree in a way that’s respecrful and beneficial to the cultural scene?

The panel is in Norwegian.
