SOCIAL UNDERSTANDING

Abstract

When we mention the term "social-sciences," the fundamental curiosity that awakens us the difference between the two terms: 'Social' refers to the fact that the subjects wrapped within its scope are related to human beings and subjectivity, and 'Sciences' is affixed to highlight the notion of objectivity in the study. So, when these two terms are combined to form one meaningful word, 'social-science,' it voices the fact of studying the broad spectrums of society as a whole through a rational and evidence-based foundation, creating a relation between knowledge and social values.
