The Journal of Arab & Muslim Media Research (JAMMR) is an international academic refereed journal published by Intellect in the UK and specializes in the study of Arab and Middle Eastern media and society. Principal Editor: Noureddine Miladi.
The speedy developments in online media, satellite TV and social media platforms have brought up significant ethical challenges around the world. The unprecedented widespread use of social networks as tools for communication and reporting news have also raised serious issues relating to the boundaries between free speech and social responsibility. Media coverage of crises, war and conflicts is a case in point.
This special issue of JAMMR aims at enriching the debate on media ethics especially in relation the digital environment. It also aims to address media ethics from a global perspective and discuss how we can understand journalism practice in its cultural contexts. Are there ways to develop a common understanding of global ethics and how they should be perceived and implemented?
This special issue of JAMMR seeks to critically address this ever-growing area of enquiry and revisit the field from various theoretical and empirical multi-disciplinary dimensions. It welcomes contributions based on empirical studies or original theoretical approaches regarding (and not necessarily limited to) the following themes:
- Philosophical origins of ethics
- Media ethics between theory and practice
- Serious journalism VS sensational reporting
- Free speech VS social responsibility
