The freedom to write and publish is a necessary element of the genus freedom. Freedom occurs within restricted parameters that support being and continuum. If God had not set parameters for the physics of the Universe to actualize in, with fewer or more dimensions, life would not be possible as Paul Ehrenfest observed. If a nation does not have stability and continuity, research and writing may be precluded by chaos.
Obviously one could be forced to write for the communist party in order to avoid imprisonment and that writer could not be said to be free. Freedom to write that is actually free implicitly requires freedom from coercion to write what is not one’s opinion.
