Abstract

During the early years of the COVID-19 pandemic, decision-makers faced numerous ethical questions in biomedical science, public health, educational policy, and education practice. Bioethicists were key partners in informing decision-making in their areas of expertise; educational ethicists, on the other hand, had to fight our way to the table if we got in the building at all. How did bioethics go from non-existent as a field in 1960 to ubiquitous a half-century later, and how could normative work in and about education make the same leap? This article uses bioethics as a foil to argue for why we need a new field of educational ethics, what such a field could accomplish, and how it might do so. It describes the kinds of problems that bioethics was created to address and the different roles that bioethicists play. The article argues that edethicists can and should address the same kinds of problems as well as play similar scholarly, clinical, and policy-oriented roles.
我们需要一个教育伦理的领域
在2019冠状病毒病大流行的最初几年,决策者在生物医学科学、公共卫生、教育政策和教育实践方面面临着许多伦理问题。生物伦理学家是为其专业领域的决策提供信息的关键伙伴;另一方面,教育伦理学家们,如果我们能进入大楼,就必须奋力争取到谈判桌上。生命伦理学是如何在1960年从一个不存在的领域发展到半个世纪后无处不在的?教育领域的规范性工作又是如何实现同样的飞跃的?这篇文章用生命伦理学作为陪衬来论证为什么我们需要一个新的教育伦理学领域,这样一个领域可以完成什么,以及它可能如何做到这一点。它描述了创建生物伦理学要解决的各种问题,以及生物伦理学家扮演的不同角色。本文认为,伦理学家能够而且应该解决同样的问题,并发挥类似的学术、临床和政策导向作用。
