Abstract
In this introductory article, I set the stage for the arguments that follow in each of the contributions to this special issue. First, I
critically examine the three pillars of the current Standards--fairness, validity, and reliability--exploring briefly how on their own each
concept is insufficient to guiding ethical practice. Then I briefly examine the Standards themselves highlighting their limitations in
guiding ethical practice. Finally, I provide a brief introduction to the various dimensions of the theory of ethics we are developing in
this special issue.
