The conclusion revisits the key arguments developed in the book. It expands the theoretical argument to other civil society sectors, focusing on the labor sector in each case. It then expands the discussion Iraq and South Africa to generalize the argument by examining the impact of the pervading political settlements and the mediating role of Western donor assistance. It concludes with a discussion of the theoretical impactions of the study.Less

This chapter explores various ways of distinguishing research that should and should not be covered by human subjects regulations. Aligning regulations to the underlying statute, which only covers “biomedical and behavioral research,” would return scrutiny to the areas of concern identified by Congress. Alternatively, defining “human subjects” more narrowly as those people in the power of an investigator might focus energy on the prevention of the abuse of power. By contrast, relying on distinctions between generalizable knowledge and nongeneralizable knowledge is the very worst strategy, for in three decades policy makers have proved unable to agree on what this distinction means.Less
