• TITLE: Establishing a Different Dimension of Citizen Security: The Case for Special Protection for Whistleblowers

  AUTHORS: David Lewis, Joshua Castellino

  KEYWORDS: Employment Law; Freedom of Expression; Corporate Wrongdoing; Corporate Liability

  ABSTRACT: The notion of citizens’ security has usually been viewed primarily as a binary relationship between the State and the citizen in a Rousseauesque interpretation. This article argues for a broader conception of citizens’ security focussing on the right to “blow the whistle” in an employment context. We believe that with the growing importance of global business in society it is imperative that special measures are designed for this important class of citizens. A failure to do so, in our opinion, is likely to harm the maintenance of effective protection, especially in developing countries, to the detriment of citizens’ security.
