How can researchers navigate ethical dilemmas in an era of rapid technological change and growing calls for decolonisation?

This fully revised second edition addresses the evolving landscape of research ethics, equipping social science researchers with the tools to conduct rigorous, responsible inquiry in today's complex world. Building on Indigenous and Euro-Western paradigms, this book offers invaluable practical guidance.

Key features include:

• Two brand-new chapters on decolonising research ethics and the ethical implications of emerging technologies, including generative artificial intelligence;

• Real-world case studies and reflective questions that bridge theory and practice;

• Over 200 new references; and

• Comprehensive coverage from research design through to dissemination and aftercare.

Drawing on the author's work with the European Commission and extensive teaching and consultancy experience, this essential resource transforms abstract ethical principles into actionable guidance for contemporary research challenges.
