Ethics for Alternative Paradigms: An Exploration of Options
By Sally Hudson. This paper examines concepts of ethics in qualitative research. The paper begins with an exploration of traditional Western moral thought on which conventional bioethics is based. It then argues that this model is unsuited to qualitative research, and proposes an alternative ethics for these paradigms.
