Klappentext
From climate change and inequality to migration and global conflict, this book explores the defining
challenges of our time. Revised and featuring nine new chapters, it brings together top scholars to
demonstrate how the social sciences help us make sense of complex events and global trends. With
fresh insights into climate justice, populism, productivity, sustainable development, and social wellbeing,
it reveals how these issues are deeply interconnected.
Supported by the Academy for Social Sciences, the book shows how disciplines such as economics,
education, political science, psychology, and sociology are essential for understanding developments
that may seem purely technological or natural. It champions interdisciplinary collaboration to ensure
science, technology, and policy serve the public good. Whether you're a curious reader, policymaker,
or academic, this book makes a compelling case for why the social sciences matter now more than
ever---and how understanding human behaviour and society can help shape a better future.
