Mass communication ethics : an Islamic perspective and an Islamic code of ethics for communicators

الملخص EN

The present study fits into a larger epistimological framework that is designed to give new adapted answers to the ethical and deontological problmatics imposed on mass media currently, by recourse to the normative Islamic sytem of values.

Furthermore, the study intends to propose a new normative perspective inspired mainly by the Islamic tradition as a basis for mass media codes that stand for the diversity and complexity of the Islamic civilizational and ethical perspective, and to transcend the limitations of the western- based model of ethics.
