While self-driving cars and autonomous weapon systems have received
a great deal of attention in media and research, the general
requirements of ethical life in today's digitalizing reality have
not been made sufficiently visible and evaluable. This collection
of articles from both distinguished and emerging authors working at
the intersections of philosophy, literary theory, media, and
technology does not intend to fix new moral rules. Instead, the
volume explores the ethos of digital environments, asking how we
can orient ourselves in them and inviting us to renewed moral
reflection in the face of dilemmas they entail. The authors show
how contemporary digital technologies model our perception,
narration as well as our conceptions of truth, and investigate the
ethical, moral, and juridical consequences of making public and
societal infrastructures computational. They argue that we must
make the structures of the digital environments visible and learn
to care for them.
