LOPEZ-CALVA, Juan Martín. Ethics and Educational Research: A Theoretical Approach to Understand it from the Dynamic Structure of the Human Good. Rev. colomb. educ. [online]. 2019, n.76, pp.223-242. ISSN 0120-3916.  https://doi.org/10.17227/rce.num76-8556.

This paper proposes a number of elements to understand the relationship between ethics and educational research from the philosophical perspective of Bernard J. F. Lonergan (1904-1984) in his ethics of achievement, specifically developing an analysis of the dynamic structure of human good as a developing object, proposed by the Canadian philosopher in his book, Topics in Education (1998). This work reviews the three levels of that structure-the particular good as opposed to statistical evil, the good of order as opposed to structural evil, and the terminal value as opposed to cultural aberration-in two dimensions: on one hand, the orientation of the educational researcher activity in the process of knowledge building and, on the other, the analysis of the finality of educational research as a discipline that consists in the construction of new knowledge for the development of educational processes of the humanity of the future.

Palabras clave : ethics; educational research; ethics of science; professional education; humanism.
