在各种法规、政策和指导方针中,人类参与的研究应该有益于社会的观点已经根深蒂固,但在生物伦理学文献中,对这一伦理原则的深入分析很少。在本文中,我区分了强版本和弱版本以及社会利益原则,并检查了它的六个论点。我认为,虽然从伦理上讲,以人类为研究对象为社会(或公众)提供重要利益总是可取的,但只有在(a)对未经同意的受试者施加超过最小风险的情况下,对实质性公共利益的合理预期才应该是将研究视为道德的必要条件;或者(b)有公共资源支持。
The idea that research with human participants should benefit society has become firmly entrenched in various regulations, policies, and guidelines, but there has been little in-depth analysis of this ethical principle in the bioethics literature. In this paper, I distinguish between strong and weak versions and the social benefits principle and examine six arguments for it. I argue that while it is always ethically desirable for research with human subjects to offer important benefits to society (or the public), the reasonable expectation of substantial public benefit should be a necessary condition for regarding research as ethical only when (a) it imposes more than minimal risks on non-consenting subjects; or (b) it is supported by public resources.
