Abstract

The Free Software Movement is one aspect of the centuries-long struggle for freedom of speech and the freedom of ideas. Like other aspects of that historic struggle it is joined to the related movement for social and economic redistribution. In this talk I consider the Free Software Movement in its historical context, and present my view of the issues that presently face us in relation to the larger history of our struggle.
