Читать книгу Doing Ethnographic Research - Kimberly Kirner - Страница 94

Background: In its code of ethics, the AAA outlines a number of considerations for researchers, particularly those of openness and honesty with a number of entities and the importance of using findings in appropriate and timely ways. While researchers’ most significant responsibilities are to the people they study, we’re also responsible to scholarship and science and to the public as a whole.

Connection: Our responsibilities to scholarship ensure that we facilitate rather than impede the advancement of the social sciences as a whole, our discipline, and the work of our colleagues. The single most important responsibility we have to the public at large is to understand the potential harm that may come from our products we disseminate and to make our results available in ways that minimize harm.

This activity will help you look for complementary and conflicting researcher responsibilities.
