Abstract: | The current study examines informal, practitioner-directed ethical discourses within the Canadian CA profession for the 1912-1997 period. Starting from the premise that ethical discourse within practitioner journals are less constrained, more flexible and timely than formal ethical information to the lay membership, the authors examine: 1) is the CA profession's current interest in ethics a recent phenomena? 2) what was meant by the term ethics in earlier periods? and 3) are current-day ethical discourses a continuation of - or break with - prior discourses? |
