Subject
Social Responsibility of Medical Journal
Description
Social responsibility can be defined as an ethical framework for contribution in community welfare. The Universal Declaration on Bioethics and Human Rights, especially on the Article 14, has explained the issue of social responsibility and health. However this statement only focused on the government’s obligation to execute this. Thus, The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO)
published “Report of the International Bioethics Committee of UNESCO (IBC) on social responsibility and Health” in 2010 which adopted and expanded this statement. “All sectors of society” should participate
in the health promotion and social development as a social responsibility. Hence, a medical journal should be considered as a part of the society which also has a social responsibility. Lundberg has explained many
social responsibilities in medical journal editing. World Association of Medical Editor emphasized at least two social responsibilities of medical journal editors. Besides publishing the high-quality articles, the medical
journal editors should consider the improvement of the human condition and safeguard the integrity of sciences to maintain ethical issues for benefit of the community.
