Ethics Dumping: Case Studies from North-South Research Collaborations: SpringerBriefs in Research and Innovation Governance

Editat de Doris Schroeder, Julie Cook, François Hirsch, Solveig Fenet, Vasantha Muthuswamy
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 13 dec 2017
This open access book provides original, up-to-date case studies of “ethics dumping” that were largely facilitated by loopholes in the ethics governance of low and middle-income countries. It is instructive even to experienced researchers since it provides a voice to vulnerable populations from the fore mentioned countries. Ensuring the ethical conduct of North-South collaborations in research is a process fraught with difficulties. The background conditions under which such collaborations take place include extreme differentials in available income and power, as well as a past history of colonialism, while differences in culture can add a new layer of complications. In this context, up-to-date case studies of unethical conduct are essential for research ethics training.

Back at Inserm, François Hirsch became deputy director of the Office for Clinical Research and secretary general of the Inserm Ethics committee. Recently, he moved to the Institute for Health Technologies where he is in charge of regulatory governance and ethics. He runs an international initiative (HTech4Dev) aimed at facilitating the transfer of health technologies to LMICs.
