This book discusses Social Science Ethics and its relevance to social scientists. In most cases, the sub-disciplines of social science have become independent academic programmes. Nonetheless, social science degree programmes are interrelated. This book will discuss broadly the importance of social science ethics, and examine more specifically, ethics of communications, sociology, political science, philosophy and among others. In particular, the book focuses on the experiences of researchers in, and from, Africa, and challenges international social science scholars to learn from these experiences, and to share their own. Authors discuss the different ways social scientists, media practitioners and students can use ethics to develop good conscience, attitudes and conduct required for public service. International social scientists, academics, researchers, and students will find this book a useful resource material for teaching and research.
