Information Technology and the Construction of Moral Reasoning, Empathy, and Affect: Crossing Time, Space, and Attitudes in Virtual Reality

William James Stover

Chapter 11.3 in Emerging Digital Spaces in Contemporary Society, 2010, pp 274-276 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The study of international relations is often an examination of foreign relations and world affairs from an ethnocentric perspective (Nossal 1998; Wendt 1999). Instructors accept their own values and then superimpose them on students. This ethnocentric analysis excludes a basic element for understanding international relations—empathy, the ability to participate in another’s values, perceptions, and feelings.
