Disciplines and Ideas in the Social Sciences

OVERVIEW
Social sciences are key to the understanding of many societal issues such as the
balance between economic growth and impact on the environment. In other words, the
social sciences examine what it means to be a social being, ranging from the minutiae of
human behavior and brain functions, to large scale social movements, demographics,
economics and politics.
In this Module we are going to discuss about social sciences as the study of the
society and its connection to humanities.

 define social science as the study of society.
 distinguish social sciences form the natural sciences and from humanities.
 generate an analysis of a social phenomenon using at least two social science
approaches.
 articulate the contributions of early scholars in the development of social science.
 illustrate situations and contexts in which social science can be applied.

Natural Sciences Social Sciences

Social Sciences and Natural Sciences

Differentiate me!
Instruction: Differentiate Natural Sciences in Social Sciences. Give some examples.

Natural sciences would remain as a

different field of inquiry, since the social
sciences accommodate nonquantifiable
elements of human society and behavior.

ESSENTIAL LEARNING

The disciplines of social sciences were forged from revolutions in both

social and theoretical realms. With the changing social landscape, scholars of
that time attempted to provide meanings and reasons for linking social sciences
and humanities. Within this transition from highly faith-based understanding of
social realities to a scientific one, disagreements among scholars occurred and
created a fragmentation of approaches in the discipline which persist until today.
