Recent advances in marine exploration technologies are revolutionizing capabilities to find and use submerged cultural resources such as historic shipwrecks. The pace of these technological developments seems to have outstripped institutional abilities to protect these resources. This situation presents problems and value conflicts for marine scientists and engineers who develop these technologies. To understand and resolve these problems requires consideration of the effects of technology development, the influence of legal rules and ethical norms, and the structure of institutions such as markets, through which submerged resources are appropriated. This project will employ theory and methods from the fields of ethics, law, economics, policy analysis, archeology, marine technology, and resource management to identify and characterize these factors. It will include careful consideration of the ethical problems and responsibilities facing marine scientists and engineers concerned about the impacts of new technologies they develop. Research will be undertaken by an interdisciplinary team, including advisors and consultants, who will prepare papers and meet in planning sessions and at professional society meetings as well as at a workshop planned for the summer, 1993. The investigators will conduct a series of guided discussions in workshop settings to progress toward the development of widely accepted principles of professional responsibility in this field, curricula, and enlarged public consideration of issues and values in protection and exploitation of marine cultural resources. The topic of this proposal is of high priority for Ethics and Values Studies. The qualifications and track record of these investigators and their associated consultants and advisors are excellent. The project provides an important test for theories and methodologies to study issues of professional responsibility in the development and dissemination of new technologies. Results will be useful for a wide range of individuals and groups. The proposal is recommended for support.

海洋勘探技术的最新进展是 革命性地发现和利用水下文化的能力 历史性的沉船等资源。 这些步伐 技术的发展似乎已经超过了制度的发展， 保护这些资源的能力。 这种情况呈现出 海洋科学家和工程师面临的问题和价值冲突 开发这些技术的人 为了理解和解决这些问题， 问题需要考虑技术的影响 发展，法律的规则和道德规范的影响， 市场等机构的结构， 水下资源被占用。 该项目将采用 来自伦理学、法学、经济学、 政策分析、考古学、海洋技术和资源 管理层要识别和描述这些因素。 它将 包括认真考虑道德问题， 有关海洋科学家和工程师的责任 他们开发的新技术的影响。 研究将 由一个跨学科的团队，包括顾问和 顾问，他们将编写文件并在规划会议上开会 在专业协会的会议上以及在一个研讨会上， 计划在1993年夏天举行 调查人员将进行一项 在研讨会上进行一系列指导讨论， 发展被广泛接受的原则 在这一领域的专业责任，课程，并扩大 公众对保护问题和价值观的考虑， 开发海洋文化资源。 本提案的主题是道德和 价值研究。 这些人的资格和往绩 调查人员及其相关顾问和顾问是 好极了 该项目为理论和实践提供了重要的检验， 研究职业责任问题的方法 开发和推广新技术。 结果将 对各种各样的个人和团体都有用。 该提案 建议支持。
