An Alternative Ethics for Research: Levinas and the Unheard Voices and Unseen Faces
Vermeylen, Saskia; Clark, Gordon
International Journal of Social Research Methodology, v20 n5 p499-512 2017
Some social scientists have criticised the workings of research-ethics committees on the grounds that their biomedical model is ill-suited to some social-science research in both practical and philosophical terms. In this paper we review these criticisms and propose an alternative approach to pre-research ethical review that is based on the philosophy of Emmanuel Levinas.
