Global Networks: Open Methods

The document discusses the ethical implications of digitization and open science research methods. It notes that digitization is changing how qualitative and quantitative research data is collected, archived, and shared. This raises new ethical issues that strain the current research ethics review system. The system may not adequately address issues around complex multi-disciplinary and distributed research involving large datasets and citizen scientists. It proposes that open and distributed accountability methods could help complement traditional institutional research ethics arrangements.
