Social Media Ethics

Wieso enden unsere Meinungsverschiedenheiten in bitteren Fehden, die uns entzweien? Warum können wir nicht mehr gesittet streiten? Woher rührt das peinliche Schweigen in Familien, unter Freunden und Kollegen, sobald es um Politik geht? Ob Coronakrise, Zuwanderung oder Ukrainekrieg: Dass die Gesellschaft wahlweise "polarisiert" oder "gespalten" sei und das Diskussionsklima "vergiftet", hören wir seit Jahren. Doch bisher fehlte eine überzeugende Erklärung dieser verbreiteten Überzeugungen, die nicht einfach solche Floskeln wiederholt.

From plain old doping to claiming a marathon victory despite having driven the middle section of the race, from match-fixing to diving for a penalty - cheating in sport is as old as sport itself. But what constititues cheating and where do we draw the line? Are some sports cleaner than others? Is cheating in one sport the same as cheating in another or does each sport's distinctive culture set different standards? Is there such a thing as a sport without sin? Or, indeed, a sporting competitor?

In the age of the Web, smartphones, and social networks, every action an organization takes can be exposed and critiqued in real time. If you treat one customer unfairly, produce one shoddy product, or try to gouge one price, the whole world may find out in hours, if not minutes. Don Peppers and Martha Rogers argue that the only sane response to these rising levels of transpar­ency is to protect the interests of customers proac­tively - even if that requires spending extra money in the short run to preserve your reputation and cus­tomer relationships in the long run.

In his #1 New York Times best seller, Bias, Emmy Award-winning journalist Bernard Goldberg created a national firestorm when he exposed the liberal biases of the so-called mainstream media. Now, in his new blockbuster, Goldberg goes even further. He not only takes on Big Journalism, but offers a twelve-step program to help the media elites overcome their addiction to bias.

In The Price of Justice, Goldfarb uses powerful testimonies, media evidence, and first-hand expertise from working in the Justice Department as a longtime public interest lawyer to reveal how both the criminal and civil justice systems fail to serve lower and middle-class citizens and makes an undeniable case for the profound justice reform that is so desperately needed. Goldfarb asks that we examine closely a legal system that has become largely pay-to-play, benefiting the administrators and those wealthy citizens who can afford to “lawyer up”.

"Der Antichrist" - Friedrich Nietzsche. Der sehr religiös aufgezogene Friedrich Nietzsche ging in die Geschichte ein als großer Kritiker christlicher Moral, aber auch Moral per se. In seinem Werk Der Antichrist wendet sich Friedrich Nietzsche offen gegen die Kirche, die seiner Meinung nach das geistige Erbe der Antike zerstört habe, aber auch gegen die christliche Glaubenslehre per se. Er lehnt die gepredigte Mitleidsethik ab und zeigt deutlich seine Verachtung für das Schwache und alles, was nicht nach Höherem strebt.
