“MANAGING THE DECISION SCIENCE TECHNOLOGY: A CASE FOR ETHICAL ANALYSIS?”‐COMMENT
评论了Brightman关于决策科学应管理其增长并追究研究者伦理责任的观点,探讨了探究与技术命令的区别以及道德推理的普遍性问题。
In the current issue of Decision Sciences, Brightman [2] argues that the growth of the discipline should be managed, and individual decision scientists must ultimately be held accountable for the ethical implications of implementing their research findings. The purpose of this comment is to examine several principles behind Brightman's arguments and to initiate a discussion of some of the important issues that have been raised. The distinction between the inquiry and technological imperatives and questions about the universality of moral reasoning at the ethical‐principles leverl further Brightman's analysis and pose important considerations for decision scientists.
