Abstract

Empirical studies show a clear geographical bias in journal publications that invisibilizes Africa. This primarily conceptual article – which adopts a philosophical analytical method – builds on these studies by drawing on two key sites of internal exclusion (language of competence and epistemological capture) in African scholarships to explain why such geographical bias is immoral. Furthermore, the article uses these concepts and integration – described as deliberative iterations – to articulate what concretely needs to happen and the specific actions to be taken to foster transformational inclusion in bioethics publications.
