Together we can often achieve things that are impossible to do on our own. We can prevent something bad from happening, or we can produce something good, even if none of us could do it by ourselves. But when are we morally required to do something of moral importance together with others? This book develops an original theory of collective moral obligations. These are obligations that individual moral agents hold jointly but not as unified collective agents. The theory does not stipulate a new type of moral obligation but rather suggests that to think of some of our obligations as joint or collective is the best way of making sense of our intuitions regarding collective moral action problems. Where we have reason to believe that our efforts are most efficient as part of a collective endeavor, we may incur collective obligations together with others who are similarly placed as long as we are able to establish compossible individual contributory strategies towards that goal. The book concludes with a discussion of 'massively shared obligations' to major-scale moral problems such as global poverty. Getting Out Act Together: A Theory of Collective Moral Obligations will appeal to researchers and advanced students working in moral, political and social philosophy, philosophy of action, social epistemology and philosophy of social science.

'Obligatory reading for anyone - straight, white and male or otherwise - who wants to do better but doesn't know where to start.' - People Management 'A pivotal guide for going from awareness to action in creating a more diverse and inclusive workplace and society.' - Marc Benioff, CEO of Salesforce -------- EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO CREATE AND LEAD AN INCLUSIVE, DIVERSE TEAM The business case for diversity and inclusion is clear - it drives innovation, profit and employer brand. But how can male white leaders help implement this change? There's no denying it's difficult - perhaps you feel left out of the conversation, afraid to make mistakes, and confused about the evolving language of diversity and inclusion. In this practical guide, leading diversity specialists Felicity Hassan and Suki Sandhu OBE teach you how to create an inclusive environment for your employees and have educated conversations about diversity, navigating what can sometimes be tricky territory with humour and heart. -------- 'A must-read and a powerful call to seize the opportunity that lies in embracing and celebrating people for who they are.' - Richard Branson, CEO & Founder of The Virgin Group 'It takes a good deal of self-awareness and continuous learning to really ingrain the behavioural changes that are needed. This book holds up a mirror and then guides us - skilfully and persuasively - to the actions we all need to be taking.' - Alan Jope, CEO of Unilever

James Carey - scholar, media critic, and teacher of journalists - almost single-handedly established the importance of defining a cultural perspective when analyzing communications. Interspersing Carey's major essays with articles exploring his central themes and their importance, this collection provides a critical introduction to the work of this significant figure. In James Carey: A Critical Reader, sever scholars who have been influenced by him consider his work and how it has affected the development of media studies. Carey has examined the roles the media and the academy have played in creating and maintaining a public sphere, as well as the ways technology helps or hinders that project. Carey's themes range from the strains on democracy and drawbacks of technology to the critique of journalism and the politics of academe.
