Summary/Abstract |
Offering a framework for ethical assessment, this article draws attention to the ethical issues accompanying empirical research on security. Speaking to the various subfields and schools of broadly conceived applied security studies, we classify the many ethical issues specific to empirical research on security, conflict, and political violence into researcher-related problems, subject-related problems, and result-related problems. We evaluate the importance and variations of these issues and highlight potential mitigation pathways. This effort brings together an existing but fragmented literature and builds upon the authors’ own experiences in several subfields and schools of “hands-on” research on security and political violence.

Summary/Abstract |
Efforts to fight international money laundering, corruption, and terrorist financing depend crucially on the prohibition barring the formation of anonymous shell companies+ To study the effectiveness of this prohibition, we perform the first international relations ~IR! field experiment on a global scale+ With university institutional review board ~IRB! clearance, we posed as consultants requesting confidential incorporation from 1,264 firms in 182 countries+ Testing arguments drawn from IR theory, we probe the treatment effects of specifying ~1! the international standards ~managerialism!, ~2! penalties for noncompliance with these standards ~rationalism!, ~3! the desire to follow norms through complying with international standards
