Reviews
All in all, the collection contributes substantially to the understanding of global media ethics. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduate, graduate, research, and professional collections. ( Choice , 1 October 2013)
<p> Global Media Ethics, which is, first and foremost, didactic, provides fodder to identify and discuss crucial issues that promise the growth of global media ethics. These issues go beyond social scientific comparativism and philosophical moral realism. They must be located within the tensions of philosophical particularism and ethical universalism. (Journal of Mass Media Ethics, 1 January 2014) <p> This excellent collection extends the emerging genre of global media ethics in several ways, but most prominently by underscoring that while the study of global media ethics is important, there is growing evidence there are few moral universals. Summing Up: Highly recommended. (Choice, 1 October 2013)
