Based on your review of the AAA's code of ethics and after reading the news article I would like for you to discuss the following questions this week:
Do you think the Human Terrain project described in the article violates the AAA's code of ethics? and if so, which of the principle(s) do you think are most important.
The news article outlines several positive outcomes to both military operations and local peoples, do the benefits outway the harms in this instance?
Even if you don't think so in this specific instance, do you think anthropologists should weigh the question of benifits / harms when thinking about these ethical principles or should they be firm guardrails that are never violated?
