human societies and the relationships among individuals within those
societies. The term was formerly used to refer to the field of sociology,
the original "science of society", established in the 19th century. In addition to
sociology, it now encompasses a wide array of academic disciplines, including
anthropology, archaeology, economics, human geography, linguistics,
management science, media studies, musicology, political science,
psychology, welfare and nursing studies and social history.
It is about people how they interact with others in their society and how
societies interact with each other. (www.quora.com)

achieve the actualization of every
human in the society. The different
disciplines under social science are
essentials in studying what it
means to be human in a humane
