This thoroughly updated fourth edition provides a broad
introduction to the major theoretical perspectives on the ethics of
communication. It brings together classical and modern theories of
ethical philosophy to address issues at play in specific careers and
domains throughout the field.
By incorporating a
simple framework for ethical reasoning, readers are able to develop
their own understanding of various criteria for making ethical
judgments. The book applies ethical theories, such as virtue and
dialogical ethics, to interpersonal, organizational, political, social
media, and digital communication contexts. This edition contains
expanded coverage of contemporary and non-Western issues and theories.
This includes the Black Lives Matter and #MeToo movements, "fake news",
new technologies such as "Deepfake" videos, Confucian ethics, and Igbo
ethics. It also includes a new chapter on the ethics of communicating
scientific and medical risks.
This book serves as a
core textbook for undergraduate courses in Communication and Media
Ethics and can also be used as a supplemental resource for
field-specific courses in Strategic Communication, Interpersonal
Communication, and Public Relations.
