| Summary, etc. |
Social sciences are aimed at including the faculties that provide humans with the means to resolve their problems in an informed and reasoned manner. Besides being soundly educated citizens we seek appropriate ethical goals: goals based on reliable knowledge abut the human condition rather than on mythological absolutes; practical goals capable of being achieved by well-tested, step-by-step strategies. An interdisciplinary approach among various disciplines is aimed at arriving at workable tools for coping with the challenges presented by the explosion of technology that has resulted from the success of the physical sciences. These strategies are capable of narrowing down the now rapidly expanding gap between knowledge in the physical sciences and our capacity to organize and educate human beings to put to constructive use the technology science has spawned, and thus to impose wise direction on the curriculum evolution. Depending on one's are of specialization, the research skills and creativity developed in an interdisciplinary studies environment can be ideal preparation for a career in a range of different subjects. The article presents a path breaking approach to a sound interdisciplinary, integrated and scientific social study - possibly founded on the life sciences. - Reproduced. |
