No science of any kind can be divorced from ethical considerations... Science is a human learning process which arises in certain subcultures in human society and not in others, and a subculture as we seen is a group of people defined by acceptance of certain common values, that is, an ethic which permits extensive communication between them.
"Economics As A Moral Science" (1969) by Kenneth E. Boulding (p. 2), as quoted in "Kenneth Boulding as a Moral Scientist" by John B. Davis, 2011.
