Situating privacy within the context of political philosophy, this
book highlights the way in which struggles concerning the meaning
of privacy have always been political. Different conceptions of
privacy are here shown to involve diverse assumptions about
ontology: our conceptions of self, culture, society and
communication. Privacy theory's debt to Locke, Kant or Mill, and
what is at stake in their conceptual frameworks, is examined. The
extent to which the term "privacy" has been used to the detriment
of - and to create - weaker parties in marriage, in the workplace
and now as citizens (or non-citizens) and consumers, as well as
employees, is also demonstrated. In contrast, Janice Richardson
pursues the relevance of Floridi's philosophy of information,
before turning to her application of Spinoza, the philosopher of
communication, in order to outline a more useful framework through
which to think about privacy today. The book will be of interest to
those working in political philosophy, feminist philosophy, law,
the philosophy of information, sociology, media, and cultural
studies.
