"Disciplines and Ideas in the Social Sciences combines academic text with activities designed for senior high school students. As this book is designed mainly to introduce the students to the approaches, ideas, and perspectives of social science, focus is not on the mere listing of each and every social philosopher or thinker but on the context of how ideas about society were created and shaped in various situations and periods, as well as on the application of those broad ideas in concrete real-life situations. The objective is to see society from the the lens of ideas, which is dynamic and never permanent. Moreover, this book challenges the students to engage the notion of society as a powerful tool to make sense to make sense of life and bring about changes in the world in which they live." --Provided by publisher
