Differnces between 'social sciences' and 'social studies'?
Social sciences are generally Sciences that deal with the theories behind human relationships. Social Studies usually focus on real people and what is happening in the world.

Includes lesson plans and activities about cultural studies, archaeology, geography, ethics, and much more.


The social sciences are a group of academic disciplines that study the human aspects of the world. They diverge from the arts and humanities in that the social sciences emphasize the use of the scientific method and rigorous standards of evidence in the study of humanity, including quantitative and qualitative methods.





The social sciences, in studying both inter-subjective and objective or structural aspects of society, are sometime referred to as soft sciences. This is in contrast to hard sciences, which may focus exclusively on objective aspects of nature.





Social scientists engage in research and theorize about both aggregate and individual behaviors.


The main social sciences include


Anthropology


Communication


Cultural Studies


Economics

History

Reply:What is Social Science?


Social science is, in its broadest sense, the study of society and the manner in which people behave and impact on the world around us.





Some experts however argue that no single definition can cover such a broad church of academic disciplines, deploying a wide range of approaches to gathering evidence. Instead they simply define the sciences by listing the subjects they encompass.





Each of these subjects uses a range of approaches to the study of society - from the collection and analysis of statistics to the collation of responses to questionnaires and interviews. Like the other sciences, the social sciences evolve through the interplay of the ideas and theories of academics, and the evidence that supports or refutes them.





Social scientists shape our lives usually without us even being aware.





Social studies on the other hand is the study that fosters an understanding ans appreciation of the world in which you live in terms of values, tradition, cultures, history and government.
