Abstract

This paper explores the role of narratives about racial identity in constituting ethical performances in dialogue. SpeciBically, a dialogic communication ethics is described and placed in the context of intergroup dialogue (IGD) and communication approaches to dialogue. Then the focus turns to how these ethical frames and models for conducting dialogue functioned in a large-scale campus dialogue on race and whiteness. The paper addresses the ways identities were constructed and deployed in the dialogues by examining how dialogue topics are framed and discussed by facilitators and participants. This discussion of intention and outcome raises theoretical and practical questions in order to facilitate further conversations about identity and ethics in a controversially “Post-racial” era. Finally, the paper looks at how communication ethics and dialogue might work to address the discursive power of social group identities in pedagogical discussions of civility, inclusion, merit or a “good” life.

对话中的种族认同交际伦理

本文探讨了种族身份叙事在构成对话中的伦理表演中的作用。具体而言，对话传播伦理被描述并置于群体间对话(IGD)和对话的传播方法的背景下。然后，重点转向这些伦理框架和对话模式如何在大规模的校园种族和白人对话中发挥作用。本文通过研究对话主题是如何由促进者和参与者构建和讨论的，阐述了身份在对话中构建和部署的方式。这种意图和结果的讨论提出了理论和实践问题，以便在有争议的“后种族”时代促进关于身份和伦理的进一步对话。最后，本文着眼于沟通伦理和对话如何在文明、包容、价值或“美好”生活的教学讨论中解决社会群体身份的话语力量。
