Abstract

The paper examines Villarán’s definition of conflicts of interest to improve it. Some clarifications are necessary but also some amendments. The basic difference consists of first distinguishing between interest and moral grounds, and, second, by emphasizing the voluntary nature of the commitment of the person facing a conflict of interest. Such a commitment arises within a work-related or professional context. It must be explicit with regard to individuals, public institutions, private organizations, whether for profit or nonprofit, or professional associations. To support this concept, a method is used that is similar to the recent tradition of the English-speaking world expressed by Rawls, instead of the search for universal or essentialist concepts of the Platonic tradition. The result is not a true definition of conflicts of interest, but a necessary one given our historical-social context.
利益冲突的必要伦理定义
本文考察了Villarán对利益冲突的定义,以改进其定义。一些澄清是必要的,但也有一些修正。二者的基本区别首先在于区分利益和道德依据,其次在于强调面对利益冲突的人的承诺的自愿性。这样的承诺出现在工作或专业背景下。它必须明确地涉及个人、公共机构、私营组织,无论是营利还是非营利组织,或专业协会。为了支持这一概念,使用了一种类似于罗尔斯所表达的英语世界的新传统的方法,而不是寻找柏拉图传统的普遍或本质主义概念。其结果并不是对利益冲突的真正定义,而是在我们的历史社会背景下的必要定义。
