ReviewsThis volume is a great teaching and learning resource. It is easy to read and provides a bridge for moving from ethics regulations and rules to the realities and challenges of practicing ethics in the field. Talk of 'messiness' of relational ethics and it is explored in this book. When I started reading it I could not stop., "Its wealth of cases, facilitator guidance, and wonderful illustrations make it immensely user-friendly as a training tool. And its sensitive portrayals of actually existing ethical conundrums make it a major contribution to the field of research ethics"., This workbook is an essential tool for those committed to the hard work of scientific collaboration across steep global inequalities, and an inspirational example of engaged anthropology., This wonderful little book uses a series of compelling stories to prompt reflection and discussion on everyday ethics in transnational research... People working in a range of field research, clinical, and academic settings will find the book irreplaceable.

SynopsisThis title is available as an Open Access eBook for free from CABI's eBook platform. Visit their website at www.cabi.org/cabebooks/ebook/20163308509. This book is a collection of fictionalized case studies of everyday ethical dilemmas and challenges encountered in the process of conducting global health research in places where the effects of political and economic inequality are particularly evident. It is a training tool to fill the gap between research ethics guidelines and their implementation "on the ground." The cases focus on "relational" ethics: ethical actions and ideas that continuously emerge through relations with others, rather than being determined by bioethics regulation. They are based on stories and experiences collected by a group of social anthropologists who have worked with leading transnational medical research organizations across Africa in the past decade. Accompanied by guidelines, discussion questions and selected further readings, the book provides a flexible resource for training and self-study for people engaged in health research with, universities, international collaborative sites and NGOs - and for everyone interested in the realities of global health research today., This book is a collection of fictionalised case studies of everyday ethical dilemmas and challenges, encountered in the process of conducting global health research in places where the effects of global, political and economic inequality are particularly evident. It is a training tool to fill the gap between research ethics guidelines, and their implementation 'on the ground'. The case studies, therefore, focus on 'relational' ethics: ethical actions and ideas that emerge through relations with others, rather than in regulations., This book is a collection of fictionalised case studies of everyday ethical dilemmas and challenges, encountered in the process of conducting global health research in places where the effects of global, political and economic inequality are particularly evident.
