Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This first book in the Journalism Insights series examines the major practical and ethical challenges confronting contemporary sports journalists which have emerged from, or been exacerbated by, the use of digital and social media. Combining both quantitative and qualitative research and contributions from industry experts in sports reporting across Europe, America and Australia, the collection offers a valuable look at the digital sports reporting industry today. Issues discussed in the text include the ethical questions created by social media abuse received by sports journalists, the impact of social media on narratives about gender and race, and the ‘silencing’ of journalists over the issue of trans athletes, as well as the impact on ‘traditional’ aspects of sports journalism, such as the match report. The book features first-hand accounts from leading sports reporters and scholars about how these changes have affected the industry and sets out what ‘best practice’ looks like in this field today. This book will be a useful resource for scholars and students working in the fields of journalism, media, sports and communication, as well as for current sports journalism practitioners interested in the future of a changing industry.

Book Methods of Ethical Analysis

Download or read book Methods of Ethical Analysis written by Nimi Wariboko and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2013-04-16 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is about showing different ways of doing ethics, highlighting a kind of methodological pluralism. This book attempts to relate the difference in methodology and perspective to difference in identity, focal point of analysis, or projects of persuasion. Difference matters ultimately because pluralism matters. This book is a tutorial in ethical analysis and reasoning. Seminarians and graduate students will be brought into the finer points of ethical analysis, of mastering the ins and outs of ethical methodology, by immersing themselves in critical social-ethical analyses of prominent scholars in the American academy. Students will be guided toward how to develop their own voice in social issues, hone their capability in social analysis, and critically engage the social sciences, history, philosophy, and literature as they embark on ethical analyses. There is no single way of teaching the methodology of social ethics and no single theory of ethics that satisfies all; therefore ethics and its methodology are better understood by enabling students to view the field through multiple "windows." Simultaneously they will learn to view social reality from different perspectives. The seven chapters of this book explore the different ways American ethicists have interrogated their nation's moral systems or crafted methods for understanding them.

Book Business Ethics Insights

Download or read book Business Ethics Insights written by Mansoor Muallim and published by M M Info Care. This book was released on 101-01-01 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chapter 1: Understanding Business Ethics Jammy: Hey there, Canny! I'm thrilled to have this candid chat with you about business ethics. It's an exciting topic, and I'm sure you'll find it just as intriguing. Canny: Hi, Jammy! I've always been curious about ethics in business, and I'm eager to learn more. Where do we start? Jammy: Let's kick off by understanding what business ethics all is about. Business ethics deals with the moral principles and values that guide the behavior of people and organizations in the business world. It's about doing the right thing, even when faced with tough decisions. Canny: That sounds important! How is it different from personal ethics? Jammy: Excellent question, Canny! Personal ethics are about our own beliefs and values, while business ethics applies those principles to the professional environment. In business, we consider not just our ethical standards but also how our actions affect customers, employees, communities, and the environment. Canny: I see! So, it's about being fair and honest, but are there more aspects to it? Jammy: Absolutely! Business ethics covers a range of values, such as integrity, transparency, accountability, and respect. It also involves thinking about the consequences of our actions and making choices that benefit not only the company but also society. Canny: That's interesting. But are there specific rules that businesses must follow? Jammy: While some laws and regulations govern business conduct, ethics go beyond mere compliance. It's about making ethical choices even when the law doesn't require it. Ethical decision-making considers the impact on stakeholders, the environment, and long-term sustainability. Canny: That makes sense! So, how can a company promote and maintain ethical practices? Jammy: Ethical practices start at the top with strong leadership. When leaders prioritize ethics and set a good example, it positively influences the whole organization. Companies can also establish a code of ethics, conduct regular training, and encourage open communication to address ethical concerns. Canny: I'm beginning to see why ethics is crucial in business. Can you give me some examples of ethical dilemmas businesses might face? Jammy: Certainly! Ethical dilemmas can arise in various situations. For instance, a company might face the temptation to sacrifice product quality to boost profits. Or they may wrestle with decisions concerning sourcing materials from environmentally questionable suppliers. Canny: Those situations sound complex. How can businesses make the right choice when facing such dilemmas? Jammy: It's not always easy, Canny. But ethical decision-making involves considering the consequences, seeking advice, and analyzing options from an ethical perspective. It's essential to take time, reflect on values, and choose the option that aligns with the organization's principles. Canny: I can see how crucial this is for the success and reputation of a company. Thanks for sharing these insights, Jammy! Jammy: You're welcome, Canny! Remember, ethics is an ongoing journey, and businesses that prioritize it build trust with stakeholders and contribute to a better society. Key Takeaways: Business ethics involves applying moral principles to the professional environment. It goes beyond mere compliance with laws and regulations. Ethical practices begin with strong leadership and influence the whole organization. Ethical decision-making considers consequences, seeks advice, and aligns actions with values. Prioritizing ethics enhances a company's reputation and fosters trust with stakeholders.

Book Insights into Ethical Theory and Practice

Download or read book Insights into Ethical Theory and Practice written by Francis Fallon and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2022-02-06 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ethical issues hold great importance for all of us, but expert accounts of them are difficult to access for those outside academics. This volume bridges that gap by framing a variety of essays within the field in a way that renders them accessible to experts and non-experts alike. Many collections on ethics re-publish classic essays and offer contextualization and analysis, while other volumes of emerging, innovative work presuppose a background in the field. This book uniquely borrows from both approaches, offering emerging, innovative work, carefully curating its order for sense, and presenting the work so that non-experts may understand it. The field of ethics is an eclectic one. Where other collections on ethics may intimidate the reader by representing the field as an organized monolith, or as impenetrable to outsiders, this volume is designed to give readers confidence and enthusiasm in approaching a diverse and lively subject.

Book The Ethical Frontier of AI and Data Analysis

Download or read book The Ethical Frontier of AI and Data Analysis written by Kumar, Rajeev and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2024-03-04 with total page 475 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the advancing fields of artificial intelligence (AI) and data science, a pressing ethical dilemma arises. As technology continues its relentless march forward, ethical considerations within these domains become increasingly complex and critical. Bias in algorithms, lack of transparency, data privacy breaches, and the broader societal repercussions of AI applications are demanding urgent attention. This ethical quandary poses a formidable challenge for researchers, academics, and industry professionals alike, threatening the very foundation of responsible technological innovation. Navigating this ethical minefield requires a comprehensive understanding of the multifaceted issues at hand. The Ethical Frontier of AI and Data Analysis is an indispensable resource crafted to address the ethical challenges that define the future of AI and data science. Researchers and academics who find themselves at the forefront of this challenge are grappling with the evolving landscape of AI and data science ethics. Underscoring the need for this book is the current lack of clarity on ethical frameworks, bias mitigation strategies, and the broader societal implications, which hinder progress and leave a void in the discourse. As the demand for responsible AI solutions intensifies, the imperative for this reliable guide that consolidates, explores, and advances the dialogue on ethical considerations grows exponentially.

Book In Search of the Ethical

Download or read book In Search of the Ethical written by Abraham Edel and published by Transaction Publishers. This book was released on 1993-01-01 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The twentieth century has been rich in the variety of its ethical theories. Since the turn of the century, contending philosophical positions have tended to view ethics either as spiritual and separate from the natural world or as a function of bodily or material forces. Although both factions had roots in older philosophies, the speed and complexity of modern development, in science and technology engendered a multiplicity of smaller schools within traditonal domains. Li the fifth volume of "Science, Ideology, and Value, "Abraham Edel offers a consideration of some of the major moral theories of this troubled century and a guide to their historical development and context. In treating the newer and distinctively twentieth-century philosophical schools, Edel concentrates on movements rather than on the individual philosopher's rounded theory. The treatment of John Dewey comes in a chapter on pragmatic tests and ethical insights, while that of Edward Alexander Westermarck comes in a larger discussion of ethical relativism. Edel's consideration of John Rawls and Alasdair Maclntyre provides a broader lesson in the problems and pitfalls of dealing with ethical ideas apart from history and social context. Edel obse/ves that while the concepts of morality, and the theories in which they are enmeshed, have been familiar subject matter of ethical theory, the one topic that has been little explored is changes over time in ethical practice. While the fact of different moralities and the rise and fall of a given morality have been dealt with in a historical vein, how such changes have impacted the theory of ethics as such has received only limited treatment. Edel devotes significant space to this topic, noting that the study of moral change may yield both a deeper understanding of the functioning of morality within the social culture as well as new vistas on the function of ethical theories themselves.

Book Listening  Thinking  Being

Download or read book Listening Thinking Being written by Lisbeth Lipari and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2015-12-07 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although listening is central to human interaction, its importance is often ignored. In the rush to speak and be heard, it is easy to neglect listening and disregard its significance as a way of being with others and the world. Drawing upon insights from phenomenology, linguistics, philosophy of communication, and ethics, Listening, Thinking, Being is both an invitation and an intervention meant to turn much of what readers know, or think they know, about language, communication, and listening inside out. It is not about how to be a good listener or the numerous pitfalls that stem from the failure to listen. Rather, the purpose of the book is, first, to make readers aware of the value and importance of listening as a fundamental human ability inextricably connected with language and thought; second, to alert readers to the complexity of listening from personal, cultural, and philosophical perspectives; and third, to offer readers a way to think of listening as a mode of communicative action by which humans create and abide in the world. Lisbeth Lipari brings together historical, literary, intercultural, scientific, musical, and philosophical perspectives, as well as a range of her own personal experiences, to produce this highly readable analysis of how “the human experience of being as an ethical relation with others . . . is enacted by means of listening.”
