Abstract

The expressions of open knowledge, embraced at their highest level by open science, presuppose the opening of barriers to established relationships between the parties wishing to produce knowledge, provided that aspects of ethics and trust are solved, with the objective of promoting citizenship. Ethics, trust and citizenship are complex and multifaceted issues, whose responses are treated differently in different domains of knowledge, such as health and ecology. In ecology the construction of open science has been very successful, while in the field of health the initial steps are still being taken. This article explores the possible differences in the treatment of the first of these issues, ethics, comparing it in the sciences of ecology and health. The debate opens space for postulates about the possibilities and barriers to the construction of open health science, through studies of social network analysis and complexity.
