Abstract:

"Dialogic Ethics" offers an impressionistic picture of the diversity of
perspectives on this topic. Daily we witness local, regional, national, and
international disputes, each propelled by contention over what is and should
be the good propelling communicative direction and action. Communication
ethics understood as an answer to problems often creates them. If we
understand communication ethics as a good protected and promoted by a given
set of communicators, we can understand how acts of colonialism and
totalitarianism could move forward, legitimized by the assumption that “I am
right.” This volume eschews such a presupposition, recognizing that we live in
a time of narrative and virtue contention. We dwell in an era where the "one
answer" is more often dangerous than correct.
