Review

Social scientists explore issues around ethics in social science research, pivoting on the virtue ethics that the West has inherited from ancient Greece in general and Aristotle in particular. They cover virtue and integrity, virtue and the review/governance of research, and phrónesis in its practice/conduct and review/governance. The topics include cultivating researcher integrity: virtue-based approaches to research ethics, whether virtue ethics can help the professional integrity of social science researchers, virtue ethics in the practice and review of social science research: the virtuous ethics committee, and the ethical regulation of social research versus the cultivation of phrónesis. -- Annotation ©2018 * (protoview.com) *
