This essay collection examines ethical concerns related to the
traditional areas of political communication, including campaigns,
media, discourse, and advertising, as well as new technologies,
including the Internet. In total, the collection provides one of
the few volumes to examine political ethics from an academic
perspective rather than from a moralistic or rule orientation.
Bruce Gronbeck provides an assessment of presidential campaigns,
arguing that ethical judgments of citizens are based on candidates'
actions and motives, character, and competence. Ronald Lee explores
the ethics of campaign discourse, and he charts the relationship
between presidential candidates' projection of civic virtue and the
political arrangements that dictate the course of the campaign
itself. Steven Goldzwig and Patricia Sullivan examine what happens
to discourse when the divide between the haves and have-nots
translates into a local community disconnected from virtual
politics. The nature, types, and impact of the growing use of hate
speech in contemporary politics is explored by Rita Whillock, while
Robert Denton investigates television as an instrument of governing
and its impact on the nature of democracy. Gary Woodward looks at
the ethics of political journalism, and Lynda Lee Kaid analyzes the
ethical issues raised by political advertising in all forms.
Clifford Jones looks at the impact of campaign finance rules on
campaign communication strategy; Gary Selnow explores the ethics of
politics on the Internet; and Robert Denton concludes by examining
the relationship between constitutional authority and public
morality. An important text for students as well as scholars
investigating contemporary American politics.
