Hello everyone Booking is now open for Onora O'Neill's Routledge lecture on ‘Ethics for Communication in a Digital Age’ (please see the abstract below). The lecture begins at 5:30pm on Thursday 7 March and will take place in the Cynthia Beerbower Room, Newnham College, Sidgwick Avenue, Cambridge. This annual lecture is organised by the Faculty of Philosophy and is free and open to all thanks to the generous sponsorship of Routledge<https://www.routledge.com/>. To book your place via Eventbrite please visit https://bit.ly/2TWLI4b. "Ethical and epistemic standards for communication have been discussed since antiquity. And since antiquity they have periodically been disrupted by technological innovations, then revised and reinforced by cultural and latterly by legal and regulatory measures. However, the transformations produced by the mushrooming growth of digital technologies in the late twentieth century, which has coincided with growing globalisation and the declining regulatory capacities of states, may prove particularly challenging. These technologies were initially seen as extending possibilities for communication in ways that would support democracy and wider civic participation. The promise has not been sustained." We do hope you can join us! If you have any questions about the lecture please don't hesitate to get in touch.
