Abstract

This essay examines how the framework of semioethics coheres with Pope Francis’s existential dialogue and its application to ethical praxis enacted through spiritual, social, and phenomenological “networks of neighborliness.” Through an analysis of Pope Francis’s 48th and 53rd World Communications Day Messages, which emphasize his evaluation of global communication production systems, specifically, socially mediated networks, this essay explains how the mutual aims of semioethics and Pope Francis’s dialogic ethics coalesce around the interrelated, material, and metaphorical coordinates of “the net” and “neighborliness” to invitean indifferent world to dialogic conversion.
