First published in 1999. This book will help professions and
professionals to identify their contribution to society and to
understand the argument in which they must engage if they are to
justify their conduct. Because of their specialized expertise and
power, the task is both difficult and pressing. The work is divided
into two parts. Part 1 discusses the concepts 'ethics' and
'professional conduct', indicating their dimensions and contested
nature. In each case, following examination and analysis of
relevant literature, a conceptual framework or model is proposed
for locating instances of, in turn, ethics and professional
conduct. In part 2, the model of ethical choice is used to discuss
the ethical justification of professional conduct in the various
forms, locations, and stages provided by its social setting. In
this way, it provides grounding arguments for relevant action by
professionals and others dealing with professionals. The book
concludes with a proposal for a national standing commission on the
professions.
