In this article, we proposed an ethical analysis of the actors involved in digital communication, starting from the communication model developed by David Berlo. Thus, we identified the sources of transmission of a message, the characteristics of the message, the channels through which it is transmitted and which are the possible recipients, asking...
In this paper, we made a distinction between the concept of fake news and the phenomenon
of fake news. Since there are several definitions of fake news, we noticed that the concept is often

We are concerned not only with understanding the historical past, but also with understanding the wider context in whic...

Una dintre problemele eticii aplicate în cercetare socială este că a devenit un subiect banalizat, acțiunile fiind realizate în mod mecanic, ca de la sine înțelese, parte din demersuri birocratizate impuse de universități, finanțatori sau alte organizații partenere. Prin demersul de față ne propunem să reactualizăm principalele probleme pe care le...
