Synopsis

The social sciences are concerned with the study of society—people living together in a community that is, in some way, ordered. Social scientists seek to understand the behaviour and relationships among individuals within a society. Once a term used only for sociology, social science now covers a wide range of disciplines, including anthropology, archaeology, economics, education, human geography, linguistics, political science and psychology. As in the natural sciences, the use of the scientific method is central to the social sciences, even though people's behaviour and social interactions can seem unpredictable. For sociologists or economists (for example), the process of gathering data, analysing the results, and testing their theories ensures that their conclusions offer insight into how humans and society work.
Social Science is the study of people — how we live, how we organise, how we make decisions, and how societies change. At degree level, you are no longer asked to memorise facts. You are asked to think critically, argue with evidence, and connect theory to real life. This book, Social Science: 10 Miscellaneous Dissertations, was written to help degree students do exactly that. Why "Miscellaneous"? It is miscellaneous by design — because real social problems are miscellaneous. Because Social Science is broad. It touches Sociology, Psychology, Politics, Economics, Anthropology, and Development Studies. Race, Ethnicity, and Social Inequality
Culture and Identity in a Globalised World; Power, Politics, and Governance; Poverty, Inequality, and Development; Gender Roles and Social Change; Education and Social Mobility; Health, Mental Well-being, and Society; Religion, Belief, and Social Order; Crime, Justice, and Social Control; Migration and Diaspora Communities
These 10 dissertations in Volume 1 span these fields and show how they are linked. Each essay connects theory to real life, with clear arguments and critical insights to help you write better essays and dissertations. It also explains key Social Science concepts in clear academic language; uses real-world examples from Africa, the UK, the USA, and globally; includes critical arguments, theories, and references for your own essays.
