In this new and ambitious work he shifts his attention to the social sciences and the social technologies. He considers a number of disciplines, including anthropology, sociology, economics, political science, law, history, and management science.Bunge contends that social science research has fallen prey to a postmodern fascination with irrationalism and relativism. He urges social scientists to re-examine the philosophy and the methodology at the base of their discipline. Bunge calls for objective and relevant fact-finding, rigorous theorizing, and empirical testing, as well as morally sensitive and socially responsible policy design. 606 $aSocial sciences$xMethodology 606 $aSocial sciences$xPhilosophy 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aSocial sciences$xMethodology. 615 0$aSocial sciences$xPhilosophy. 676 $a300/.7/2 700 $aBunge$b Mario.$040460 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910455951803321 996 $aSocial Science under Debate$92457293 997 $aUNINA
