European and American scholars of the humanities, primarily philosophy, exploit the ambiguity of the phrase the ethics of history to explore divergent avenues. They agree however in their critique of a flat-footed correspondence theory of historical truth and the corresponding notion that historians can be dispassionate and value-free. And so they collectively call for a revision of the popular appeal to historical objectivity. The 12 papers seem to be from an April 1998 conference at Emory College. They are not indexed.
