Sinopsis

Communication Ethics: Promoting Truth, Responsibility, and Civil Discourse in a Polarized Age is intended to teach students how to ethically communicate in a world where it has become difficult to navigate the strains of perceived difference. Disinformation, dishonesty, denials of responsibility and a lack of accountability are just some of the factors that are compromising our ability to engage in civil discourse. For a student to understand how to better communicate given these challenges, it is necessary for them to understand the theoretical foundation for ethics and to practice applying ethical communication strategies to situations they will increasingly face in their everyday lives.

The text equips readers with the practical skills they need to deal with difficult communication situations they face in a complex world. It features a case study approach that affords students experience in constructing arguments using a combination of traditional ethical theory with an updated focus on how to apply those principles in a challenging and ever more polarized society.

The book highlights the need to promote truth, speaks to the impact of technology on ethics and communication, addresses current controversies in the field, and more.

A timely and essential resource for today’s modern students, Communication Ethics is an excellent textbook for courses and programs in ethical communication.
