Drawing on Paul Ricoeur's narrative theory and ethics, Fernando Nascimento argues for a new approach to integrating ethics into digital technology development, use, and regulation.
This book introduces the concept of "digital poetics" to address the unprecedented ethical challenges posed by ubiquitous, intimate, and plastic digital technologies. Nascimento proposes narrative deliberation as a framework for ethical decision-making, contextualizing moral principles, encouraging public debate, intertwining technique with ethics, and employing narrative imagination to overcome practical dilemmas. By examining three spheres of deliberation-developers, users, and institutions-Digital Poetics offers a multidimensional analysis of ethical considerations in the digital realm. This book presents digital poetics as both a utopian ideal and an ethical imperative which can respond to the rapid pace of technological change and the complexity of implementing ethical frameworks in digital contexts
