Abstract

This paper seeks to advocate for the adoption of universalism as the ethical basis for research principles versus relativism, which would allow for different rules for different cultures. I will argue that although borne in, and out of, Western ideologies, it is in the best interest of all humans to adopt human rights based universal ethical principles.
