A Voss and Pike Casefile: The First Case
Section 18: Dr Corinne Abara
Abara was younger than the rest, sharper-dressed, a half-finished journal article open on her screen: TRUTH AS POWER: WHY "ETHICAL RESEARCH" IS A METANARRATIVE LIKE ANY OTHER.
"You've come to ask if I feel guilty," she said, before you'd sat down. "I'll save you the trouble. I think the idea of a pure, ethical, value-free social science is exactly the kind of grand story postmodernism exists to take apart. Candour isn't uniquely corrupt. It's just unusually honest about whose interests research always, eventually, serves."
