Rajbir Singh Pannu 2014-02-10“Ethical judgments limit the methods available in the production of knowledge in the arts and natural sciences. Discuss. » In essence, several areas limit the exploration of a model, particularly in the natural sciences and arts. These areas include ethical judgments, judicial regulations, and economic considerations. New knowledge is created using several distinct methods that draw on reason, emotion, perception, or language as a means of knowing. These four ways of knowing are applied in forms such as experimentation, literature, visual arts, theorizing, etc. ; as a result, new knowledge is produced. This essay will focus primarily on how ethical judgments limit the methods available for knowledge production.

Undoubtedly, ethical considerations limit the exploration of the natural sciences and the arts. Both areas of knowledge are affected in similar and different ways by ethical judgments. These ethical judgments vary from culture to culture or region to region when it comes to the arts. On the other hand, ethical judgments associated with the natural sciences are more universal because they involve the physical body rather than the mental state. In my opinion, ethical considerations should not limit the production of knowledge, but rather its application. In other words, a scientist should research stem cells and the application of this research to prevent disease should be limited..
