This book is an interdisciplinary study of communication and
theology, and at the same time an integrated study of the West and
Asia. This book is based on an Asian mode of thinking to explore
answers to the research question: 'What is the meaning of
communication for life in Cyberspace? - A Christian ethical quest
in reference to the Korean situation.' This book examines the
ecumenical discussion on theology of life and East Asian
traditional perspectives such as Taoism, Buddhism, Confucianism and
Tonghak, on life and its relationship with communication. In this
book, the author suggests three basic dimensions of communication
for life: first, communication for life is to overcome
anthropocentrism in communication because all living beings are
communicating entities; second, communication for life is to
overcome communication for death and to bring mutual life to the
human society and the entire cosmos; and third, Communication for
life is not fragmentary. In linking up human beings and other
living beings, as well as the East and the West, it is holistic,
integral communication. This book applies this value of
communication for life to analyze the ethical problematics in
Cyberspace communication with the economic, political and cultural
dimensions. The author contends that communication for life in
Cyberspace means to support people's life together in love through
Cyberspace communication. In addition, this book analyzes the
positive role of Cyberspace communication through close examination
of two prominent cases in South Korea: the highly successful
citizen participatory journalism of 'OhmyNews' and the largest
social network site in Korea 'Cyworld'.
