In 2023, Ethical Space: The International Journal of Communication Ethics celebrates its 20th anniversary. Yes, we have come through! The opening editorial spelled out its stance clearly, stressing that it was ‘an academic quarterly with a difference’. The journal was to be inter-disciplinary, international, philosophically and theoretically eclectic and rooted in a determination to approach in original ways the pressing communication, political, cultural and environmental issues of the day.
This volume brings together papers from those 20 years under five main themes:
- Communication ethics: Philosophical reflections
- New media, new ethical challenges
- Professionalisation and media ethics: Beyond the rhetoric
- Communication ethics and pedagogy
- And finally: Speaking out on ethics
Editors are: Tom Bradshaw, Sue Joseph, Richard Lance Keeble and Donald Matheson
In his Foreword, Professor Clifford Christians describes ES as ‘an inspiring model of moral realism’ |
