Overview

In the continuously changing field of social sciences, ethical considerations in anthropological studies pose unprecedented challenges. The book Reviving and Re-Writing Ethics in Social Research For Commoning the Community embarks on a transformative journey, moving beyond historical analysis to address pressing contemporary questions about the norms governing anthropological study. Who guards the guardians? What ethical challenges does the modern era pose for anthropological sciences? These are the critical questions explored in this comprehensive exploration of the ethical landscape of social research. As the ethical foundations of social research shift with political, intellectual, and societal changes, there is a pressing need to reassess the purpose of anthropological knowledge and the responsibility of researchers towards the communities they study. The book raises vital concerns about the evolving nature of ethical considerations, challenging traditional notions of ethical research. It highlights the ethical and axiological dilemmas faced by anthropologists in the modern era, emphasizing the need for a more community-centric approach that actively benefits the studied communities. Reviving and Re-Writing Ethics in Social Research For Commoning the Community does not analyze the problem; it offers a compelling solution. Drawing on historical perspectives and contemporary insights, the book navigates ethical dilemmas, researcher relationships, privacy, authority, and knowledge democracy. It challenges anthropologists to rethink the discipline's ethical foundations and advocates for the inclusion of marginalized voices. By providing practical examples involving migrant laborers in Malaysia and Indigenous communities in Bangladesh, the book guides researchers toward a more equitable and ethical practice of social research. It is a force that reshapes the ethical landscape of social sciences, urging a community-centric approach that aligns with modern moral and ethical standards.
