When Public and Business Interests Collide: An Integrated Approach to the Altruism-Instrumentalism Tension and Corporate Social Responsibility Theory 当公共利益与商业利益发生冲突:利他主义-工具主义张力与企业社会责任理论的综合解读

ABSTRACT This article attends to the debate of what motivations – instrumental or altruistic – should drive corporate social responsibility (CSR) decisions and practice; I offer an integrated instrumental and duty-based framework. While the win-win instrumentalism that underlies much of CSR practice is problematic and needs addressing, the notion of altruism is also flawed. Such an application of deontological principles, while well-intentioned, is a) based on a misreading of Kant’s humanity formula, b) does not lend itself to the inherent duality of the CSR concept, and c) constrains the quest and need to mainstream ethical CSR. Instead, I propose that a more pertinent question is how to address firms’ tendency to choose those societal issues that yield private benefits. In this regard, drawing on W.D. Ross’ moral philosophy, I provide a three-level decision criterion for addressing situations where firms’ private interests and social aspirations collide.
本文关注的是什么样的动机——工具性或利他性——应该推动企业社会责任(CSR)的决策和实践;我提供了一个综合的工具和基于职责的框架。虽然作为企业社会责任实践基础的双赢工具主义存在问题,需要解决,但利他主义的概念也存在缺陷。这种义务论原则的应用,虽然是善意的,但却是a)基于对康德人性公式的误读,b)不适合企业社会责任概念的内在二元性,c)限制了对主流伦理企业社会责任的追求和需要。相反,我提出了一个更贴切的问题,即如何解决企业选择那些产生私人利益的社会问题的倾向。在这方面,借鉴W.D.罗斯的道德哲学,我提供了一个三级决策标准来处理企业的私人利益和社会愿望发生冲突的情况。

From “Communicating” to “Engagement”: Afro-Relationality as a Conceptual Framework for Climate Change Communication in Africa 从“沟通”到“参与”:非洲关系作为非洲气候变化沟通的概念框架

ABSTRACT This study interrogates the conventional understanding of and practice within mediated climate change communication (CCC) as a forum where transformative ideas on sustainability practices are shaped. Besides the dominance of non-African contexts and epistemologies in literature analyzing the media-climate change and public nexus, there is little attention given to problematizing public engagement. Common assumption pitches “the public” on the one side and “the communicator” on the other side. This bifurcated model of “communicating” climate change has import for the forms of subjectivity in climate (in)action, including a weakened citizenship representation in climate discourse and the de-pluralization of ideas. This study argues that for people to be actually engaged in climate campaigns, it is important to draw attention to what understanding of “person” and “community” undergird current CCC practice. The work draws insights from African political theories and communication studies to position CCC toward inclusive public engagement.
摘要:本研究质疑了对气候变化中介沟通(CCC)的传统理解和实践,这是一个塑造可持续发展实践变革思想的论坛。除了非非洲背景和认识论在分析媒体-气候变化和公共关系的文献中占主导地位外,很少有人关注公众参与的问题。通常的假设是“公众”站在一边,“传播者”站在另一边。这种“沟通”气候变化的分叉模式对气候行动中的主体性形式具有重要意义,包括气候话语中的公民代表性减弱和思想的去多元化。本研究认为,对于真正参与气候运动的人来说,重要的是要引起人们对当前CCC实践中“人”和“社区”的理解的关注。这项工作借鉴了非洲政治理论和传播学研究的见解,将CCC定位为包容性的公众参与。

ABSTRACT The 2017 Commission on Public Relations Education (CPRE) report found new professionals are not meeting employers’ expectations regarding ethics knowledge, skills and abilities. This mixed-method study identifies the most common ethical issues facing public relations professionals today, essential competencies associated with ethics in public relations, and which of those skills are lacking. The study began with a Delphi survey with public relations leaders followed by 40 personal interviews. Implications for educators and public relations professionals are provided. In addition, a model of public relations practice, drawing on virtue theory, is proposed that contrasts the role of an ethical conscience with that of a spin doctor.
2017年公共关系教育委员会(CPRE)的报告发现,职场新人在道德知识、技能和能力方面达不到雇主的期望。这个混合方法的研究确定了当今公共关系专业人员面临的最常见的伦理问题,与公共关系伦理相关的基本能力,以及哪些技能是缺乏的。这项研究首先对公共关系负责人进行德尔菲调查,然后进行40次个人访谈。为教育工作者和公共关系专业人员提供了启示。此外,本文还提出了一种基于美德理论的公共关系实践模式,将道德良知的作用与公关顾问的作用进行了对比。

Boundaries of Hate: Ethical Implications of the Discursive Construction of Hate Speech in U.S. Opinion Journalism 仇恨的边界:美国舆论新闻中仇恨言论话语建构的伦理意涵

ABSTRACT In the United States, hate speech sits at the intersection of ethical and legal debates and has a complex relationship with journalism. The First Amendment provides broad legal protections for hate speech, and U.S. journalists have historically been known for their advocacy for speech freedoms. However, ethical debate persists about the extent to which hate speech should be used within U.S. public discourse. At the nexus of this debate are journalists with intersecting and – possibly – competing duties. This study examines the discursive construction of hate speech in U.S. opinion journalism, analyzing journalistic discourse published in U.S. editorials and opinion columns between 1998 and 2019. The study finds five key themes that, together, indicate the use of hate speech as a means to articulate a libertarian interpretation of public discourse, facilitating a reductionist conception of freedom of expression that does not live up to journalism’s duties to democracy.
在美国,仇恨言论处于伦理和法律辩论的交叉点,与新闻业有着复杂的关系。第一修正案为仇恨言论提供了广泛的法律保护,美国记者历来以倡导言论自由而闻名。然而,关于仇恨言论应该在多大程度上在美国公共话语中使用的道德争论仍然存在。这场辩论的核心是记者,他们的职责相互交叉,甚至可能相互竞争。本研究通过分析1998年至2019年间发表在美国社论和评论专栏上的新闻话语,考察了美国舆论新闻中仇恨言论的话语结构。该研究发现了五个关键主题,这些主题共同表明,仇恨言论被用作表达自由主义对公共话语的解释的手段,促进了言论自由的简化概念,而这并没有达到新闻业对民主的责任。

ABSTRACT Social projects are based on ethical values that members defend, incorporate in their life and want to implement. Identity and mission play an important role in the transmission of values within organizations, especially in the case of social oriented projects. This article examines the digital communications of La Fageda, a socially driven commercial cooperative. The research explores how the project ethically communicates its action: making the life of people with intellectual disabilities better by producing high quality yogurts and other related products. Through focus groups, in-depth interviews and field visits, we analyzed how La Fageda is explained through its ethical principles and values, as a way to articulate lessons for corporate communications field. We compare how the project is communicated and received in social media and if there is consistency and alignment or a distortion in this perception.
社会项目是建立在道德价值观的基础上的,成员们捍卫这些价值观,将其融入到他们的生活中,并希望实施这些价值观。身份和使命在组织内部的价值观传递中发挥着重要作用,特别是在面向社会的项目中。本文考察了由社会驱动的商业合作社La Fageda的数字通信。该研究探讨了该项目如何在道德上传达其行动:通过生产高质量的酸奶和其他相关产品,改善智障人士的生活。通过焦点小组、深度访谈和实地考察,我们分析了拉费格达是如何通过其道德原则和价值观来解释的,以此作为企业传播领域的一种清晰的经验教训。我们比较项目是如何在社交媒体上沟通和接受的,以及这种看法是否有一致性和一致性或扭曲。

Erasing the Past: Untangling the Conflicting Journalistic Loyalties and Paradigmatic Pressures of Unpublishing 抹去过去:解开矛盾的新闻忠诚和取消出版的范例压力

ABSTRACT Unpublishing, or the act of deleting previously published media content from a news outlet’s online archive in response to an external request, is a growing ethical and practical dilemma for journalists. Adjudicating unpublishing requests leaves each media outlet to wrestle with balancing the ethical tenets of accuracy and objectivity. Amid a substantial rise in scholarly attention to technological challenges associated with digital privacy, research specific to unpublishing is limited and less focused on the ethical foundations from which professional practices might be developed. This study used qualitative interviews with editorial decisionmakers at print, television, and radio news outlets to explore the challenges unpublishing pose to journalists’ work. Results show a struggle to balance competing loyalties to the individuals requesting content to be removed and two fundamental paradigmatic assumptions. Findings identify new complexities to the media-audience relationship and call for refocusing attention toward resolving how unpublishing decisions fit within the journalistic paradigm before tenable newsroom practices can take root.
取消发布,或从新闻机构的在线档案中删除先前发布的媒体内容以响应外部请求的行为,是记者面临的一个日益增长的道德和实践困境。裁决不发表请求让每个媒体机构都要努力平衡准确性和客观性的道德原则。在学术界对与数字隐私相关的技术挑战的关注大幅增加的情况下,针对不发表的研究是有限的,并且较少关注可能发展专业实践的道德基础。本研究对印刷、电视和广播新闻媒体的编辑决策者进行了定性访谈,以探索未出版新闻对记者工作构成的挑战。结果显示,在要求删除内容的个人之间的竞争忠诚和两个基本的范式假设之间存在着平衡的斗争。调查结果指出了媒体与受众关系的新复杂性,并呼吁重新关注如何在站得住脚的新闻编辑室实践扎根之前,解决不发表决定如何符合新闻范式的问题。

Are You Sure You Want to View This Community? Exploring the Ethics of Reddit’s Quarantine Practice 您确定要查看此社区吗?探索Reddit隔离实践的伦理

ABSTRACT In the United States, social media organizations are not legally liable for what users do or say on their platforms and are free to regulate expression in any way they see fit. As a result, dark corners of the Internet have emerged to foster communities whose sole purpose is to create and share content that subjugates members of traditionally marginalized groups. The subreddit,/r/TheRedPill, is one such community. This article explores whether hiding this offensive content through digital “quarantine” or removing the community altogether is more ethically justifiable. We draw on theorizing about the ethics of social media content moderation to develop a framework for ethical decision-making based on transparency, corporate social responsibility, and human dignity to guide decisions about content removal. Using/r/TheRedPill as a case study, we argue that the most ethically justified course of action is for Reddit to remove the site entirely from its platform.
在美国,社交媒体组织对用户在其平台上的行为或言论不承担法律责任,可以自由地以任何他们认为合适的方式规范表达。因此,互联网的黑暗角落已经出现,以培育社区,其唯一目的是创造和分享征服传统边缘化群体成员的内容。reddit的子版块/r/TheRedPill就是这样一个社区。本文探讨了通过数字“隔离”隐藏这些令人反感的内容还是完全删除社区在道德上更合理。我们借鉴关于社交媒体内容审核的道德理论,以透明度、企业社会责任和人类尊严为基础,制定一个道德决策框架,指导内容删除的决策。以/r/TheRedPill为例,我们认为最合乎道德的做法是Reddit将该网站从其平台上完全移除。
