Description: Virtue in Virtual Spaces : Catholic Social Teaching and Technology, Paperback by Conwill, Louisa; Levis, Megan; Scheirer, Walter J., ISBN 9798400800269, ISBN-13 9798400800269, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Explore new modes of creation to bring virtue back into virtual spaces. At its best, the internet channels the world into a global village of sorts, where citizens learn from each other, explore new modes of creation, and help others work through dilemmas in both physical and virtual spaces. Virtue in Virtual Spaces argues that the internet doesn't have to be the cultural wasteland of click-bait, partisan politics, and vulgar content that we see too often today. Technology has tremendous potential for good because of the inherent goodness of human creation and creativity which can be achieved through the development and use of technology. The authors draw from writing on virtue ethics and Catholic Social Teaching to demonstrate this potential goodness of technology. Eight of the main themes of Catholic Social Teaching are used to build a framework for designing technology to promote human flourishing. In this book, readers will engage with the philosophies behind their favorite social media platforms, examine how the design features in these platforms shape habits and imagination, and gain dialogue-based skills to bring virtue back into virtual spaces.
