The Palgrave Handbook of Ethics in Critical Research
Author: Catriona Ida Macleod
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319747215
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 469
Book Description
This handbook highlights the growing tensions surrounding the current dominant ethical clearance model which is increasingly being questioned, particularly in critical research. It draws on stories from the field in critical research conducted in a range of contexts and countries and on an array of topics. The authors involved in this collection encountered dilemmas, contradictions and surprises that brought about a change in their understanding of ethics. Throughout the book they discuss how ethics is an ongoing and situated struggle that requires researchers, at times, to traverse traditional ethical imperatives. Four sections lead readers through the complexities of grounded ethical practice: encountering systems, including Ethics Committees and institutions; blurring boundaries within research; the politics of voice, anonymity and confidentiality; and power relations in researching ‘down’, ‘up’, and ‘alongside’. This handbook is a resource for social science researchers using critical methodologies across a range of disciplines, as well as for students and teachers of ethics, in navigating the quandaries of ‘doing good’ while doing good research.

The Ethical Practice of Critical Thinking
Author: Martin Clay Fowler
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781594605031
Category : Critical thinking
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
"The Ethical Practice of Critical Thinking affirms that our very best critical thinking and scholarship must happen between people, and not just between one's ears. We need not just sound arguments, but arguments which matter, about things which matter, with people who matter to each other. When critical thinkers take each other's humanity and dignity as seriously as their arguments, they improve both their reasoning and their communities of discourse. And because thinking together about substantial issues leads to conflicts, critical thinking needs a robust ethical practice to sustain dialogue. This book is a contribution to that practice."--BOOK JACKET.

Ethical Consumption
Author: Tania Lewis
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1135282390
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 298
Book Description
A not-so-quiet revolution seems to be occurring in wealthy capitalist societies - supermarkets selling ‘guilt free’ Fairtrade products; lifestyle TV gurus exhorting us to eat less, buy local and go green; neighbourhood action groups bent on ‘swopping not shopping’. And this is happening not at the margins of society but at its heart, in the shopping centres and homes of ordinary people. Today we are seeing a mainstreaming of ethical concerns around consumption that reflects an increasing anxiety with - and accompanying sense of responsibility for - the risks and excesses of contemporary lifestyles in the ‘global north’. This collection of essays provides a range of critical tools for understanding the turn towards responsible or conscience consumption and, in the process, interrogates the notion that we can shop our way to a more ethical, sustainable future. Written by leading international scholars from a variety of disciplinary backgrounds - and drawing upon examples from across the globe - Ethical Consumption makes a major contribution to the still fledgling field of ethical consumption studies. This collection is a must-read for anyone interested in the relationship between consumer culture and contemporary social life.

Teaching Ethics through Literature
Author: Suzanne S. Choo
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 100040630X
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 160
Book Description
Teaching Ethics through Literature provides in-depth understanding of a new and exciting shift in the fields of English education, Literature, Language Arts, and Literacy through exploring their connections with ethics. The book pioneers an approach to integrating ethics in the teaching of literature. This has become increasingly relevant and necessary in our globally connected age. A key feature of the book is its integration of theory and practice. It begins with a historical survey of the emergence of the ethical turn in Literature education and grounds this on the ideas of influential Ethical Philosophers and Literature scholars. Most importantly, it provides insights into how teachers can engage students in ethical concerns and apply practices of Ethical Criticism using rich on-the-ground case studies of high school Literature teachers in Australia, Singapore and the United States.
