New Media Technologies : A Special Issue of the Journal of Mass Media Ethics

This special issue of the Journal of Mass Media Ethics , focusing on new media technologies, questions whether world views can be analyzed in light of the many ways in which technical means generally exist. The contributors to this special issue believe that the instrumentalist worldview is invading our spirit, and influencing the way we teach and learn, as well as managing our social institutions, making the technological order reconstitute the moral order in terms of technique.
