Information technology is an integral part of the practices and
institutions of post-industrial society. It is also a source of
hard moral questions and thus is both a probing and relevant area
for moral theory. In this volume, an international team of
philosophers sheds light on many of the ethical issues arising from
information technology, including informational privacy, digital
divide and equal access, e-trust and tele-democracy. Collectively,
these essays demonstrate how accounts of equality and justice,
property and privacy benefit from taking into account how
information technology has shaped our social and epistemic
practices and our moral experiences. Information technology changes
the way that we look at the world and deal with one another. It
calls, therefore, for a re-examination of notions such as
friendship, care, commitment and trust.
