Praise and Reviews "This book on ethics is long overdue. Thoughtful yet thoroughly practical, it will help public relations professionals tussling with ethical dilemmas.

Overall, the purpose of Ethics in Public Relations is threefold:to provide a framework for understanding important ethical issues in public relations and corporate communications now and in the futureto help develop an attitude that supports the concept that ethics are key to professionalism and credibility in the fieldto assist in everyday ethical decision-makingWritten by a leading academic in the field, this practical and engaging title is a must-have for any public relations practitioner or student who wants a framework that relates underlying ethical theories to everyday issues.

Ethics in Public Relations

A Guide to Best Practice

By: Patricia J Parsons

Ethical practice in any professional discipline is guided by age-old philosophical perspectives, but its modern parameters are continually evolving. Ongoing developments in technology, social media and social contexts mean that public relations and its practices in particular are constantly changing, and so are the ethical questions faced by practitioners in the field. Ethical questions and dilemmas are inherent to public relations, and ensuring that practitioners operate ethically is fundamental to both the professionalism and credibility of the field. Engaging and accessible, Ethics in Public Relations offers a lively exploration of the key ethical concerns present in the public relations world today by way of practical tips and guidance to support those in PR and corporate communications. It covers topics including the roles which lies, truth and honesty play; utilitarianism; practising respect and morality; authorship; conflicts of interest; PR and the corporate ethics programme; moonlighting; the impact of whistleblowing and more. Written by a leading academic in the field, this fully updated third edition of Ethics in Public Relations includes an entirely new chapter on the uses of ethics in social media, covering topical issues such as blogger engagement and the relationship between employee social media activity and organizational reputation.
