abstract = {With reality TV formats such as Big Brother, Deutschland
sucht den Superstar, Schwiegertochter gesucht and several
other programmes of this kind, an entire television genre is
criticised for not only violating codes of ethics, but also
for disregarding the highest value of the Universal
Declaration of Human Rights and the Basic Law. For in these
formats, in front of an audience of millions, people are not
only often humiliated, insulted and sometimes exposed to
inhuman situations, but are also treated according to
stereotypes and prejudices. For this reason, the accusation
is often made that reality TV violates human dignity. Is it
justified, however, to pass such a grave judgment on these
TV formats and to claim that they violate human dignity? In
order to find an answer to this question, it is essential to
clarify what is meant by "human dignity". Even though the
term is used in numerous ethical discourses, a controversial
discourse has been going on about its meaning for some years
now, which provides extremely heterogeneous answers to the
question of how to define human dignity. In the present
dissertation, a proposal for the understanding of human
dignity in distinction to "dignity of a person" is
presented, which makes clear that the term is not empty, but
in its long history it has been given various meanings that
need to be differentiated more precisely. It then explains
what this elaborated understanding of dignity means for the
television formats criticised. The goals of the dissertation
are, on the one hand, an analytical examination of the
concept of dignity and, on the other hand, to gain clarity
about whether reality TV fundamentally, it's individual
formats or individual components of these formats violate
dignity.},
