Is Justice Real When "Reality� is Not?: Constructing Ethical Digital Environments examines how frameworks and concepts of justice should evolve in virtual worlds. Directed at researchers working in, or with an interest in virtual reality, as well as those interested in the fields of artificial intelligence and justice, this book covers research regarding impacts on human psychological states existing within alternative ethical frameworks. With chapters dedicated to behavioral impacts of virtual events, robotics and "unconscious", and human psychological states of role playing and existing, readers will be well-equipped to navigate the virtual worlds in which millions of people currently spend time.
