English: The social sciences comprise academic disciplines concerned with the study of the social life of human groups and individuals including anthropology, economics, geography, history, political science, psychology, social studies, and sociology.
The word "science" is older than its modern use. Under the influence of positivism, the word has become a short-form for "natural science". It is a recent development that society has become the object of an organized body of knowledge which can be standardized and taught objectively, while following its own rules and methodology. The social sciences comprise the scientific study of the human aspects of the world. They are also known as social studies. (See also: History of the social sciences)
