The Social Control of Pornography and Sexual Behavior

In a normless society, such as ours, the prob ability of continuing deterioration is evident if the mass com munications media's emotional debasing of human behavior continues unabated. The law, cognizant of the problem but unable to effectively moderate the flow of pornography and demeaning sexual behavior in areas of public communication, suggests the need to establish some form of direct social control. In order to offset their cumulative and debasing effect, it is tentatively proposed that the flexibility of the mass media be matched by an equally flexible monitoring- voting system ("monivoting"), under which public controls may be imposed within a matter of hours. The proposals are perceived as a socio-cultural necessity for the continuing vitality of the nation
