    The Corporate Cognitive-Existential Delinking:An Ethical Appraisal
    (International Journal of Management, 2017-01) Yadav, Anupam
    The paper argues that the corporate rationality is essentially delinking of the cognitive-existential integrality and hence ethically threatening. The examination is inspired by Gadamer's critique of the Kantian rule-bound, axiomatic morality from the perspectives of the classical Roman idea of sensuscommunis (inherent in which is the idea of good or social solidarity) and the Aristotelian ethics. Gadamer's critique is insightful in analyzing the nature of agency in the corporate domain and its moral implications. Against the backdrop of this moral discourse, the paper concedes that the detached, theoretical corporate functioning is abortive of the sense of good defying compensation even in the idea of corporate social responsibility in which we generally capture the essence of corporate ethics and its existential concerns.

    Professional Ethics for Organizational Development
    (Bloomsbury India, 2020-12) Shukla, Tanu
    Professional Ethics for Organizational Development provides a lucid view of significance, positioning, and impact of ethical compliances in the professional context with empirical evidence. The book affirms that ethics is not merely a theoretical study, but also the implication of ethical principles at the workplace. Professional Ethics in any profession governs the desirable execution of behavior at the workplace. The most vital thought is how systematic research has been undertaken to arrive at a sound conclusion than merely a hypothetical understanding. The book addresses these concerns by elucidating the professional ethics from theoretical to the practical point of view.

    Who Breaks My News? – Business of Breaking News and its Retention Value
    (Scholarly Research Journal for Interdisciplinary Studies, 2021-06) Chouhan, Gajendra Singh
    Today we are breathing the air of information. Communication has become a necessity and it is fast evolving into a powerful social currency. Exchange of information is shaping the world around us by the minute. In such a dynamic set-up no other medium has risen in prominence than the television medium. One of the major factors behind its exponential rise has been the growth of 24x7 news channels. News is a genre which is directly associated with the people. It may be that a news story is interesting or informative, that it directly affects us, that it makes us pause and think or evokes our compassion, anger or concerns. In a globalised world today, news is meant to represent an interface between the public and ideas about ‘the truth out there.’ The Breaking News format is the most exploited news presentation technique by news channels which are on the air the whole day. The format boasts of speed, exclusivity and news of immediate relevance. The reality of it is something quite different. Breaking news stories work on people’s limited literacy and naivety that leads them to believe further that what they see is real and every new piece of information is breaking news. The viewers get a concatenation of news without following up the previous day’s stories and a false sense of ‘enlightenment.’ The excessive dramatics and cleverly devised presentation strategy behind the Breaking News phenomenon have altered the profile of a news programming. Such a trend is showing signs of long term impact on how people take news and how it impacts our understanding of the world.

    Media, Culture and Ethics
    (Macmillan, 2018-01) Sharma, Sangeeta; Shekhawat, Sushila; Yadav, Anupam
    Media has become such a prominent source of information today that we just cannot ignore it. Apart from traditional media, the alternate media has occupied a major space in the life of an individual. With the dependence on media for information dissemination, responsibility of being correct is the major concern. Everyone has his/her own prejudices and is guided by whimsical thoughts, so it is imperative to have media literacy to understand the information transferred through any media. Today every individual has the power to generate news through social media. The accuracy of the information is decided by the reader, based on prerequisite information. Media and popular culture percolate in all aspects of our waking time. The unrelenting exposure predominantly guides our perception of reality, The formation of our values, our beliefs and attitudes and above all it defines self and society. This has become an extraordinarily powerful educating agent amongst majority of the population. The speed with which it is influencing the society has blinded us. Hence, it becomes imperative to have complete and true reflection of the cultures in which the stories are set.
