Louis Dembitz Brandeis

    Louis D. Brandeis était un avocat américain et un réformateur social progressiste, acclamé comme "l'Avocat du Peuple" pour son service public pro bono. Son travail sur des causes sociales progressistes a été à l'origine du concept de "droit à la vie privée" et a alimenté sa lutte contre les puissantes sociétés et monopoles, qu'il jugeait préjudiciables aux valeurs américaines. Brandeis a ardemment défendu la liberté d'expression et le droit à la vie privée, établissant des précédents significatifs dans le domaine juridique.
