This book serves as a defense of the freedom of the press while critiquing the actions of the "Governo Regenerador," which is portrayed as a government that has violated the Portuguese Constitution and the public's liberties. It delves into political persecution and the legitimacy of judicial actions against the press, emphasizing the essential nature of free expression in a democratic society. In the book, Barbosa de Magalhães specifically addresses a legal case involving the newspaper "Correio da Tarde," which faced scrutiny for its criticism of governmental policies. He argues that the government’s attempts to suppress the press represent a broader attack on individual freedoms and civic rights. Through detailed legal arguments, he dissects the actions of the judiciary and the public ministry, asserting their illegitimacy in prosecuting cases related to the press. The author emphasizes that discussing and criticizing government actions is not only a fundamental right but necessary for the health of democracy. This treatise champions the importance of independent media as a check against governmental overreach, advocating for the protection of civil liberties against authoritarian practices.
