Recent years have seen a number of whistleblowers risk their
liberty to expose illegal and corrupt behaviour. Some have heralded
their bravery; others see them as traitors. Can there be a moral
duty to emulate their example and blow the whistle? In this book,
leading political philosophers Emanuela Ceva and Michele Bocchiola
draw on well-known cases, such as those of Edward Snowden and
Chelsea Manning, to probe the difference between permissible and
dutiful whistleblowing. They argue that, insofar as whistleblowing
is understood as an individual act of dissent, it falls short of
constituting a duty, although it can be praiseworthy.
Whistleblowing should, they contend, be seen as an institutional
duty, embedded within the organizational practices of public
accountability. This concise book will be invaluable for students
and scholars of applied political theory, and political and
professional ethics.
