Some experts however argue that no single definition can cover such a broad church of academic disciplines, deploying a wide range of approaches to gathering evidence. Instead they simply define the sciences by listing the subjects they encompass.
Each of these subjects uses a range of approaches to the study of society - from the collection and analysis of statistics to the collation of responses to questionnaires and interviews. Like the other sciences, the social sciences evolve through the interplay of the ideas and theories of academics, and the evidence that supports or refutes them.
Social scientists shape our lives usually without us even being aware. The role of governments in an increasingly market based society for example has during the last century been determined by famous thinkers such as John Maynard Keynes and Karl Popper. It was an economist who first dreamt up the idea of National Health Service. And the payment of billions of pounds of state benefits for the needy has been influenced by the work of social scientists. Research findings continue to provide invaluable insights whether you are a parent, a local councillor, a police officer, or a business executive
这类东西,没有像数学那样子生硬,但是就是因为模糊,才显得越剧挑战力。在中国,社会学顶多是搞搞市场调研、分析员工、分析消费者这类工作居多,至于其他的,由于基础太差了,反而很窘迫。但是各大调研机构入驻中国,也算是带来一个希望。一般,社会学是属于家境优越的人读的。呵呵。
