Title

Ethical Concerns In Forensic Anthropology

Abstract

Practitioners of biological anthropology have been concerned with ethics and social policy since the emergence of the discipline in the mid-1800's (Wax, 1987). Forensic anthropology, as a more recently defined branch of anthropology, is directly involved in the interface of ethics and social policy as it is codified in law and applied to the definition of personhood and the fundamental issue of death (Fluehr-Lobban, 1991; 1998; Wax, 1987). © 2005 State University of New York.
