Methods for Examining Freedom of Expression in Media and Communication Sciences

Summary/Abstract: The aim of this study is to present methodological trends in research on freedom of expression on social media in relation to the protection of democracy, user protection, hate speech, online extremism, transferred platform liability, supranational legislation, and the impact of algorithms and artificial intelligence. The academic literature is examined over the period 2016–2026, as the past decade has, according to our findings, represented a significant shift in the use of social media and in their impact on users. In addition to overview of established research trends, this methodological literature review also discusses the limitations of existing methods and proposes their supplementation or alternation, thereby providing a scholarly foundation for future research in this field.
