This comprehensive book offers a novel theory of communication and justice for the digital age,revising and expanding upon classic positions in political philosophy and ethics. It engages a wide range of thinkers,from Aristotle to Immanuel Kant and the American pragmatists,to John Rawls,Jürgen Habermas,and Amartya Sen. The central theme of the book is the pursuit of justice in communication,where the ultimate authority lies in the ability to define and confront injustice.

It also addresses the challenges posed by digitalization,such as public access to information archives,the role of local and global communication networks in shaping personal identities and imagined communities,the reconfiguration of the press as a fourth branch of governance,and the importance of privacy as a foundation for individuals and collectives to live their lives according to their plans and make their own histories.

It provides a rich and nuanced analysis of the complex interplay between communication,justice,and power in the digital age,and offers valuable insights into the future of communication and society.
