Abstract: In this case he deals with the issue of Prior Informed Consent and the ethics underlying the knowledge exchange between formal and informal system. The criteria for assessing the adverse consequence from knowledge providers are discussed in the context of Rawlsian framework. Similar consequences are conceptualized for knowledge seekers. It is debated that whether motives could have a bearing on the outcomes or the consequences. The relationship between knowledge, institutions, ethics and culture is briefly reviewed to discuss what exactly is the normal behaviour among scholars. The policy implications of the work with particular reference to intellectual property rights are identified.
