Call for Chapters: Virtue Ethics in the Conduct and Governance of Social Science Research

Call for Chapters 

Following an event organised by the BSA / Academy of Social Sciences on the topic in May 2015 I am editing a collection of essays to be published under the (working) title ‘Virtue Ethics in the Conduct and Governance of Social Science Research.’ The contract for the book has been signed and it will appear in 2017. The structure of the book is as follows: 

 Section 1: Virtue and Integrity in Social Science Research

 Section 2: Virtue and the Review/ Governance of Social Science Research

 Section 3: Phronesis in the Conduct and Governance of Social Scientific Research.

The first two sections of the book will contain the papers given in 2015, whilst the third section has resulted from the interests of additional contributors. 

I am interested in hearing from potential authors for chapters in each of these sections. If there is a particular motivation to add a section this may be possible. To discuss a proposal please contact me at n.emmerich@qub.ac.uk
