本文探讨了伦理学与方法论创新之间相互作用的内在张力。本文重点介绍了社会科学定性研究方法创新的三个案例:网络图、儿童主导研究和创造性研究方法。他们利用对创新者和创新评论员的半结构化采访收集的数据进行主题分析,讨论了道德责任、研究民主化、赋权以及研究与学院之间的关系等问题。这篇文章强调了创新是关于反身性和新技术的方式。它显示了创新如何可能是关于管理风险而不是承担风险:创新者既谨慎又有创造力,在一种文化中运作,在这种文化中,程序性道德规范限制了方法的发展,并且他们(以及他们的方法/方法的其他用户)在他们的方法的创新品质的同时传达了安全品质。
This article is an exploration of the tensions inherent in the interaction between ethics and methodological innovation. The authors focus on three cases of innovation in qualitative research methods in the social sciences: netnography, child-led research and creative research methods. Using thematic analysis of data collected through semi-structured interviews with the innovators and commentators on the innovations, they discuss issues of ethical responsibility, democratisation of research, empowerment and the relationship between research and the academy. This article highlights the ways in which innovation is about reflexivity as well as new techniques. It shows how innovation may be about managing risk rather than taking risks: the innovators are cautious as much as creative, operating within a culture in which procedural ethical regulation acts to limit methodological development and in which they (and other users of their method/approach) communicate the safe qualities alongside the innovative qualities of their approach.
