Introduction

Today's digital revolution is a worldwide phenomenon, with profound and often differential implications for communities around the world and their relationships to one another.

About the Book

This book presents a new, explicitly international theory of media ethics, incorporating non-Western perspectives and drawing deeply on both moral philosophy and the philosophy of technology.

Author's Approach

Clifford Christians develops an ethics grounded in three principles - truth, human dignity, and non-violence - and shows how these principles can be applied across a wide range of cases and domains.

Target Audience

The book is a guide for media professionals, scholars, and educators who are concerned with the global ramifications of new technologies and with creating a more just world.
