Scientific responsibility for research integrity is rediscovered through role responsibility, evolving from collective duties to a trans-scientific community. This highlights the need for co-responsibility in the science-society relationship.

Area of Science:

  • Philosophy of Science
  • Ethics in Science
  • Sociology of Science

Background:

  • Modern ethics often prioritizes abstract principles over social role responsibility.
  • Discussions on research integrity within science reveal a resurgence of role responsibility.
  • The concept of scientific responsibility has evolved significantly over time.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the historico-philosophical underpinnings of scientific responsibility for research integrity.
  • To analyze the evolution of role responsibility in the scientific community.
  • To propose a framework for co-responsibility in the science-society relationship.

Main Methods:

  • Historico-philosophical analysis of ethical and scientific discourse.
  • Examination of the evolution of concepts like 'collective responsibility' and 'trans-scientific community'.

  • Conceptual analysis of the relationship between scientific integrity and societal engagement.
  • Main Results:

    • Modern ethics' shift to abstract principles contrasts with science's rediscovery of role responsibility.
    • Role responsibility in science has evolved from 'collective responsibility' to a 'trans-scientific community' model.
    • Challenges persist in linking scientific role responsibility to the broader science-society dynamic.

    Conclusions:

    • The scientific community's focus on research integrity represents a vital rediscovery of role responsibility.
    • Further development is needed to integrate scientific role responsibility with societal interactions.
    • A concept of 'co-responsibility' can foster integrity within both science and its relationship with society.
