ABSTRACT This essay discusses the impact of the situationist challenge to Aristotelian virtue ethics for media ethics instruction. Since virtue ethics is a theory that is centered around character building, it is an unnatural fit for an applied ethics setting. Some pedagogic strategies have been developed by media ethicists to deal with this problem. Referring mainly to John Doris’ situationist criticism of virtue ethics, this essay argues that these strategies as well are problematic, and makes suggestions on how to incorporate situationist insights into the media ethics curriculum.

美德伦理的情境主义批评及其对媒体伦理课堂的启示

摘要本文讨论了情境主义挑战对亚里士多德美德伦理学对媒体伦理学指导的影响。由于美德伦理学是围绕品格构建的理论，因此它不适合应用伦理学环境。媒体伦理学家已经开发出一些教学策略来解决这个问题。本文主要提到约翰·多里斯对情境伦理学的情境主义批评，认为这些策略也是有问题的，并就如何将情境主义见解纳入媒体伦理学课程提出了建议。
