Ghostwriting and the Ethics of Authenticity

About this book

?This book presents an ethical framework which evaluates the legitimacy ofthe practice of ghostwriting. It explores the connection between personalauthenticity and the use of ghostwriters in corporate, political, legal, highereducation, and scientific contexts. It then examines the history ofghostwriting as a professional practice and introduces a model for ethicalanalysis.
In this book, the authors shrewdly address crucial ethical questions suchas: When is it acceptable for a leader to claim the words of a ghostwriter astheir own? When may this be inappropriate or even dangerouslymisleading? What are the consequences when public awareness of thispractice leads to cynicism about the authenticity of leaders and theircommunications? And when, if ever, is the use of a ghostwriter ethical?This book will be welcomed by scholars and practitioners alike as anoriginal and timely contribution to the literature of business, politics, andcommunications.
