Abstract

Begründet durch Vorfälle außerhalb und innerhalb der ökonomischen Profession hat sich der Verein für Socialpolitik im Sommer 2012 einen Ethikkodex gegeben, der auf dem Dreieck von Transparenz, Objektivität und Fairness im wissenschaftlichen Umgang fußt. Der vorliegende Aufsatz begründet diese Prinzipien und weist auf praktische Aspekte des ethischen Verhaltens hin, die der Kodex verlangt. Der Kodex setzt eher auf soziale Normen und gesunden Menschenverstand als auf justiziable Regeln. Das Verhalten von Institutionen regelt er nur indirekt; anlässlich des Trends zum externen Sponsoring von Wissenschaft gibt es möglicherweise Anlass zur Nachjustierung. Es gilt in den kommenden Jahren zu überprüfen, ob der Ethikkodex das Verhalten der Mitglieder nachhaltig beeinflusst.
