About this blog

  • Thinking Ethics was a project launched in Geneva to foster the debate about ethics. A few friends, fed up with only reading about abuses in the media, decided to hold a forward-looking seminar on five subjects: ethics and performance, ethics and knowledge, ethics and consciousness, ethics and disobedience and ethics in real time. If moral has to do with right and wrong, then ethics is its application in society. We believe that people need to talk about the subject to determine the level of ethics they want. The book Thinking Ethics, a result of the seminar, is to start the discussion. This blog is a contribution to the conversation.

Silver lining

Some think the people only change under pressure - well then the Rupert Murdoch media-ethics scandal about the News of the World hacking will actually have a positive outcome. The UK media is sending around all kinds of ethics memos and a new Ethics Code is being promised.

This comes not a second too soon. The UK is a beacon in CSR and fair play (soccer hooligans aside), and the comportment of a lot of its media - or gutter press - was a real aberration. Hopefully, the government will force the media to clean up its act, if they don't do it pro-actively.
