Course Description:
Students will have a general understanding of 'ethics' for the media professional. They will be introduced to different perspectives in (social) philosophy with an emphasis on different modes of ethical reasoning. This understanding will enable the students to evaluate how well or how poorly standards in the field (e.g., professional ethics in journalism or public relations), are constructed and formulated. Students will not only be able to identify the ethical perspectives underlying these standards, but also to identify the different ethical argumentations implied within these. Through readings and class discussions connected to real life cases, students will be trained in ethical reasoning and form personal ethical underpinnings for their future careers.
