Code of conduct

International Code of Conduct on the Distribution and Use of Pesticides, United Nations Pood and Agriculture Organization, New York, 1985 amended to include provisions for "Prior Informed Consent," 1990. 

Assuming that standard codes of conduct, for example, the Nuremburg Code (1947) and the World Medical Association s Declaration of Helsinki, are followed by researchers, the element of consent will already have been satisfied. In fact, as far as the element of consent to the intrusion into privacy goes, the medical community s doctrine of informed consent is a very strict application of the element of consent. We may note that the specific informed consent of an individual human subject of research may not be adequate to the decisions surrounding data mining. 

In short, we return to C. P. Snow s recommendation that the scientist and humanist converse more. The conversations, analysis, and discussion should include the third culture, the technologist. Therefore, although we have not provided specihc and detailed analysis of issues related to computer use in the pharmaceutical industry, believing as we do that that sort of analysis is for the specialized philosopher doing conceptual analysis in computers ethics, we do urge that applied philosophers be part of the research team. Also, in the dynamic and flexible world of technology, applied philosophers—not just the people in the held of computers—should help draft policy statements and codes of conduct.

All societies have their rules of play their institutions. These institutions can be defined as the restrictions created by humanity to give structure to political, economic and social interaction. A society s institutions are at the same time its rules of play and its safeguard mechanisms. They can be formal, such as the Constitution, laws, property rights and ethical codes, or informal, such as customs, traditions and expected codes of conduct in a professional group.

Since SYSCO does not itself manufacture, a quality assurance team of more than 180 professionals determines specifications for each own-brand item and also sets criteria for raw materials and for the standards that manufacturers and processors must follow for food safety, quality, and consistency, as well as for social responsibility and supplier codes of conduct. This quality assurance team identifies and establishes supply sources and audits those suppliers to enforce SYSCO s strict standards for various factors like facility conditions and sanitary measures. Inspectors are at the plants as bacon comes off the production line, or follow produce from field to cooler to assure proper holding temperatures and product integrity. SYSCO s program is unmatched in the food industry. The number of people and level of resources committed to supporting the integrity of the products are far superior to those of other industry competitors, who may devote merely a handful of personnel to these tasks, if they are undertaken at all.

Cases where decision makers have made decisions on the basis of their private interests (generated, for example, by bribes from developers) do not refute this, since such practices are recognized as corrupt and contrary to how the decisions should be made. Those who make planning decisions have to abide by a code of conduct which requires that they declare if they have a personal interest in the matter and withdraw from the discussion and decision if that interest could be considered to be prejudicial (Committee on Standards in Public Life, 1997). 

Social justice has not been an integral part of the construction of the organic movement (Guthman 2004). Yet, today we are witnessing the emergence of new movements or perhaps a rejuvenation of existing movements, that seek to promote fair trade and new codes of conduct. The introduction of new concepts such as chain transparency, food chain awareness, food miles, just food and sweat shops, and the appearance of bestseller books like Past Pood Nation, suggest an increased public concern about food that transcends health, taste and price, to include the social costs of food production.
