Just and unjust leaks : when to spill secrets / Walzer, Michael   Journal Article
Walzer, Michael Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract All governments, all political parties, and all politicians keep secrets and tell lies [2]. Some lie more than others, and those differences are important, but the practice is general. And some lies and secrets may be justified, whereas others may not. Citizens, therefore, need to know the difference between just and unjust secrets and between just and unjust deception before they can decide when it may be justifiable for someone to reveal the secrets or expose the lies—when leaking confidential information [3], releasing classified documents, or blowing the whistle on misconduct may be in the public interest or, better, in the interest of democratic government.
