Abstract:
This paper argues that social inequality is possibly the core topic of any critical theory in the social sciences – for epistemological as well as ethical reasons. As the social scientist is part of the scientific object, namely society, the project of science is interdependent with its object. For this reason, the structure of society itself influences the shape of social science. At the same time, the processes and results of the scientific project have an impact on society. Science changes its own object. Epistemological issues are therefore tied to the ethical questions about the social organization of the scientific project, access to science, the structure of society and inequality. If access to science is unequal and if science contributes to inequality, this has to be legitimized scientifically.

Abstract:
This article discusses of one of the most important type of social sciences developed<br />in Indonesian context. In the midst of debate between Western secular<br />social sciences and Islamic social sciences, Kuntowijoyo offered a genuine yet<br />critical formula of social sciences. The formula called Ilmu Sosial Profetik (ISP)<br />attempted to build a bridge between secular social science and Islamic inclination<br />of social science. This article describes the position of ISP in the context of<br />critical position of Muslim social scientists on the hegemony and domination of<br />Orientalist tendency in studying Islam. At the end, the author offers a conclusion<br />that ISP can actually be regarded as Islamic-based transformative science that<br />can be further developed for a genuine indigenous theory of social sciences from<br />the Third World.<br />Artikel ini membahas salah satu tipe paling penting dari ilmu-ilmu sosial yang<br />dikembangkan dalam konteks Indonesia. Di tengah perdebatan antara ilmu-ilmu<br />sosial Barat sekuler dan ilmu social Islam, Kuntowijoyo menawarkan formula<br />yang orisinal dan kritis dalam ilmu sosial. Formula yang kemudian disebut dengan<br />Ilmu Sosial Profetik (ISP) berusaha untuk membangun jembatan antara ilmu sosial sekuler dan kecenderungan untuk melakukan Islamisasi ilmu sosial. Artikel<br />ini menjelaskan posisi ISP dalam konteks posisi kritis ilmuwan sosial Muslim pada<br />hegemoni dan dominasi kecenderungan orientalis dalam mempelajari Islam. Pada<br />akhirnya, penulis menawarkan kesimpulan bahwa ISP sebenarnya dapat dianggap<br />sebagai ilmu sosial transformatif berbasis Islam yang dapat dikembangkan lebih<br />lanjut sebagai teori sosial yang berkembang dari Dunia Ketiga.

Abstract:
This article explores how Christian constructivism can guide educators who are Christians toward an integral engagement with the social sciences that is both critically reflective and humbly teachable. Such an engagement requires a recognition that all image-bearing human beings may contribute insights about the human condition, responsible stewardship of knowledge with the mind of Christ, and approaching the social sciences with gospel-directed critical realism that is neither fearful nor uncritically accepting of social science perspectives.

Abstract:
The traditional perception of terminology as a tool for scientists used mainly in standardisation and for the regulation of the term-concept relationship is currently undergoing a critical re-appraisal with the intention of transcending purely pragmatic considerations at the moment of formulating the foundations for a new theory of terms. The present paper concentrates on three issues. First it critically examines the traditional concept of what constitutes a scientific discipline; secondly it re-assesses the idea of the objectivity of scientific knowledge from the standpoint of the concept of "Denkstil", and, finally, it discusses the difficult tension between popularisation of science and social interaction.

Full text
Abstract:
L’œuvre de Paul Ricœur excelle à la fois en termes de profondeur mais également de richesse. En touchant virtuellement tous les principaux thèmes de la vie intellectuelle européenne, la philosophie ricœurienne déploie les ressources de l’analyse existentielle, phénoménologique, herméneutique, éthique, morale et politique. Même s’il existe une vaste littérature secondaire qui continue de croître rapidement, l’aspect social de la pensée de Ricœur requiert indubitablement un effort très important de discussion. En proposant une analyse directe des idées de la philosophie ricœurienne, cette thèse de doctorat vise à développer une reconstruction critique à la fois compréhensive et explicative de sa pensée sociale. Sa conception de l’intersubjectivité, son analyse de la signification de la réciprocité mutuelle dans la dialectique entre ipséité et altérité, sa perspective critique et argumentative du paradoxe du politique et son intérêt pour les questions fondamentales des institutions, de la justice, de la mémoire et de la reconnaissance, témoignent de l’authenticité et des limites d’une réflexion philosophique immergée dans les complexités de la vie sociale.Au regard de la littérature scientifique déjà existante sur la philosophie ricœurienne, l’objectif de cette thèse de doctorat est de reconstruire sa pensé sociale à partir des héritages qui ont une influence significative sur son projet philosophique : phénoménologique (E. Husserl ; A. Schutz), herméneutique (W. Dilthey ; H.-G. Gadamer), sociologique (L. Boltanski ; L. Thévénot, ; M. Weber), éthique (Aristotle ; Kant) et politique (J. Rawls ; M. Walzer). Ce travail n’entend pas se limiter à l’étude des thèmes qui caractérisent l’œuvre ricœurienne la plus récente. Il s’appuie aussi sur ses premiers travaux consacrés à la phénoménologie de Husserl, en soulignant le fait que ces écrits fournissent des éléments très signifiants et des clés interprétatives avec lesquelles lesquels adresser sa plus large pensée sociale. De plus, cette thèse considère certains articles à caractère éthique et politique de Ricoeur, qui portent sur la relation entre la foi Chrétienne et le criticisme social, publiés dans les revues Esprit et Christianisme Social. Certes, la pensée sociale de Ricœur se caractérise comme une voie longue, traversée par des signifiants détours, qui nécessitent d’être critiquement considérés. La problématisation interne, qui s’interroge sur l’unité de la pensée sociale de Ricoeur, sera ainsi liée dynamiquement à une problématisation externe reliée à la place occupée par la pensée sociale ricœrienne parmi les différentes traditions de la philosophie sociale et des sciences sociales. En quoi, donc, la pensée sociale de Ricœur est-elle singulière ?
Paul Ricœur’s work excels both in depth and breadth. His philosophy, which touches upon virtually all major themes in European intellectual life, makes use of existential, phenomenological, hermeneutical, ethical, moral and political analysis. Although the secondary literature on Ricœur is huge and continues to grow rapidly, the social aspect of his thought requires considerably more discussion. By offering a sustained engagement with Ricœur’s ideas, the purpose of this dissertation is to develop a comprehensive critical reconstruction of his social thought. His account of intersubjectivity, his analysis of the significance of mutual reciprocity in the dialectics of selfhood and otherness, his critical argumentative scheme of political paradox, and his interest for the very question of institutions, justice and of recognition, testify the authenticity and the limits of an engaged philosophical reflection concerned with the complexities of social life, with how people collectively think about it, behave in, and make sense of social situations.With regard to the large amount of secondary literature written about Ricœur’s philosophy, this dissertation aims at adequately reconstruct his social thought through different inheritances that have a significant influence on his philosophical project, namely, the phenomenological (e.g., E. Husserl, A. Schutz), the hermeneutical (e.g. W. Dilthey, H.-G. Gadamer), the sociological (e.g. L. Boltanski, L. Thévenot, M. Weber), the ethical (e.g. Aristotle, Kant), and the political legacy (e.g. J. Rawls, M. Walzer). The present work is not limited to the analysis of the topics of his later philosophical enterprise. It makes also reference to his earliest writings on Husserl’s phenomenology, emphasizing the fact that these provide highly significant elements and instructive interpretative keys with which to assess his broader social thought. Moreover, this dissertation looks at some of Ricœur’s ethical and political writing concerning the relationship between Christian faith and social criticism published in the journals Esprit and Christianisme Social. Certainly, Ricœur’s social thought is a long journey marked by significant detours, which need to be critically considered. The internal preoccupation, concerned with the thematic unity of Ricœur’s social thought, will be always dynamically accompanied by an external preoccupation, focused on the place occupied by the French author’s social approach among the different currents of social philosophy and the social sciences. Which are, then, the unique features of Ricœur’s social thought?

Abstract:
Die konzeptionelle Verbindung zwischen Bildung und Gesellschaft, die im 19. Jahrhundert deutlich gemacht und wissenschaftlich begründet wurde, wird oft als selbstverständlich betrachtet. Diese veraltete Verbindung bildete aber die Basis für Bildungsreformen im Sekundärbereich in Deutschland und Indien in der zweiten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts. Diese Arbeit unternimmt den Versuch, zum Verständnis dieser Verzögerung zwischen den Ideen und den Reformen, die sie einrahmten, beizutragen, indem sie eine geeignete Theorie der Verbindung zwischen Bildung und einer komplexen Gesellschaft aufstellt. Grundsätzliche Annäherungen an Gesellschaft und Bildung treten in Dialog mit post-kolonialen und kritischen Theorien. Universalistische Annahmen werden problematisiert, und eine offene Lösung für die Vorstellung zukünftiger Reformen wird präsentiert. Nationale Bildungsreformen in Indien und Deutschland nach ihren „Critical Junctures“ von 1947/1945 werden eingehend und chronologisch verglichen, um einen spezifischen Charakter historisch- und bildungs-bedingter Reproduktion beider Länder herauszuarbeiten sowie einen gemeinsamen Lernprozess zu ermöglichen. Abschließend wird eine Lösung des Problems in der Form offener Bildung präsentiert. Bildung als öffentliches Gut muss nicht zwangsläufig nur auf soziale Probleme reagieren, stattdessen kann sie verändert werden, um sozialen Wandel voran zu treiben.
The conceptual link between education and society, forged in the 19th Century, is often taken for granted. This seemingly outdated connection, however, has guided reforms in secondary education in India and Germany throughout the second half of the 20th Century. This study attempts to understand this lag between underlying ideas and the reforms they framed by synthesizing a viable theory for imagining the connection between education and a complex society. Foundational approaches to society and education are brought into dialogue with post-colonial and critical theories. Universalistic assumptions are problematized, and an open-ended solution for theorizing new connections is presented. National educational reforms in India and Germany subsequent to their critical junctures of 1947/1945 are exhaustively and chronologically compared in order to conceptualize a generic character of historical-educational reproduction for each country and to facilitate a process of mutual learning. Finally, a solution to the problems associated with educational reproduction is presented. Education as a public good does not need to simply be reactive to social problems. Instead, it can be reconfigured so as to drive social change.

Abstract:
This thesis is a work of interpretation about interpretations of law. It exposes mainstream approaches of law, a critical legal pluralist approach and a legal geographic approach to methods of questioning provoked by a series of events connected to “Palestinian Human Rights Week” at McGill Faculty of Law. These events are used to highlight that the theoretical approach of a Critical Legal Pluralism can better account for power relations than mainstream approaches to law but, that it can nonetheless be usefully supplemented by an appreciation of Legal Geography in order to account for the how of power relations, prevent the reification of ‘human legal agency' and make a move beyond the human/non-human binary.
Ce mémoire est un travail d'interprétation sur différentes interprétations du droit. Il confronte une approche juridique traditionnelle, une approche fondée sur le pluralisme juridique critique ainsi qu'une approche de géographie du droit à des réflexions suscitées par une série d'événements en relation avec la Semaine des Droits de l'Homme en Palestine qui s'est tenue à la faculté de Droit de Mcgill. Ces événements sont utilisés afin de mettre en lumière le fait qu'une approche théorique issue du Pluralisme Juridique Critique permet de rendre mieux compte des rapports de pouvoirs que les approches traditionnelles du droit ; celle-ci peut toutefois être enrichie par la Géographie du Droit afin de rendre compte du comment des rapports de pouvoirs, prevenir la réification des "human legal agency" et dépasser l'opposition binaire humain/non-humain.

Abstract:
Safe and effective vaccines against COVID-19 are seen as a critical path to ending the pandemic. This synthesis brings together data related to public perceptions about COVID-19 vaccines collected between March 2020 and March 2021 in 22 countries in Africa. It provides an overview of the data (primarily from cross-sectional perception surveys), identifies knowledge and research gaps and presents some limitations of translating the available evidence to inform local operational decisions. The synthesis is intended for those designing and delivering vaccination programmes and COVID-19 risk communication and community engagement (RCCE). 5 large-scale surveys are included with over 12 million respondents in 22 central, eastern, western and southern African countries (note: one major study accounts for more than 10 million participants); data from 14 peer-reviewed questionnaire surveys in 8 countries with n=9,600 participants and 15 social media monitoring, qualitative and community feedback studies. Sample sizes are provided in the first reference for each study and in Table 13 at the end of this document. The data largely predates vaccination campaigns that generally started in the first quarter of 2021. Perceptions will change and further syntheses, that represent the whole continent including North Africa, are planned. This review is part of the Social Science in Humanitarian Action Platform (SSHAP) series on COVID-19 vaccines. It was developed for SSHAP by Anthrologica. It was written by Kevin Bardosh (University of Washington), Tamara Roldan de Jong and Olivia Tulloch (Anthrologica), it was reviewed by colleagues from PERC, LSHTM, IRD, and UNICEF (see acknowledgments) and received coordination support from the RCCE Collective Service.

Abstract:
Since February 2021, countless lives have been lost in India, which has compounded the social and economic devastation caused by the second wave of COVID-19. The sharp surge in cases across the country overwhelmed the health infrastructure, with people left scrambling for hospital beds, critical drugs, and oxygen. As of May 2021, infections began to come down in urban areas. However, the effects of the second wave continued to be felt in rural areas. This is the worst humanitarian and public health crisis the country has witnessed since independence; while the continued spread of COVID-19 variants will have regional and global implications. With a slow vaccine rollout and overwhelmed health infrastructure, there is a critical need to examine India's response and recommend measures to further arrest the current spread of infection and to prevent and prepare against future waves. This brief is a rapid social science review and analysis of the second wave of COVID-19 in India. It draws on emerging reports, literature, and regional social science expertise to examine reasons for the second wave, explain its impact, and highlight the systemic issues that hindered the response. This brief puts forth vital considerations for local and national government, civil society, and humanitarian actors at global and national levels, with implications for future waves of COVID-19 in low- and middle-income countries. This review is part of the Social Science in Humanitarian Action Platform (SSHAP) series on the COVID-19 response in India. It was developed for SSHAP by Mihir R. Bhatt (AIDMI), Shilpi Srivastava (IDS), Megan Schmidt-Sane (IDS), and Lyla Mehta (IDS) with input and reviews from Deepak Sanan (Former Civil Servant; Senior Visiting Fellow, Centre for Policy Research), Subir Sinha (SOAS), Murad Banaji (Middlesex University London), Delhi Rose Angom (Oxfam India), Olivia Tulloch (Anthrologica) and Santiago Ripoll (IDS).

Abstract:
Why research Palaeolithic and Mesolithic Scotland? Palaeolithic and Mesolithic archaeology sheds light on the first colonisation and subsequent early inhabitation of Scotland. It is a growing and exciting field where increasing Scottish evidence has been given wider significance in the context of European prehistory. It extends over a long period, which saw great changes, including substantial environmental transformations, and the impact of, and societal response to, climate change. The period as a whole provides the foundation for the human occupation of Scotland and is crucial for understanding prehistoric society, both for Scotland and across North-West Europe. Within the Palaeolithic and Mesolithic periods there are considerable opportunities for pioneering research. Individual projects can still have a substantial impact and there remain opportunities for pioneering discoveries including cemeteries, domestic and other structures, stratified sites, and for exploring the huge evidential potential of water-logged and underwater sites. Palaeolithic and Mesolithic archaeology also stimulates and draws upon exciting multi-disciplinary collaborations. Panel Task and Remit The panel remit was to review critically the current state of knowledge and consider promising areas of future research into the earliest prehistory of Scotland. This was undertaken with a view to improved understanding of all aspects of the colonization and inhabitation of the country by peoples practising a wholly hunter-fisher-gatherer way of life prior to the advent of farming. In so doing, it was recognised as particularly important that both environmental data (including vegetation, fauna, sea level, and landscape work) and cultural change during this period be evaluated. The resultant report, outlines the different areas of research in which archaeologists interested in early prehistory work, and highlights the research topics to which they aspire. The report is structured by theme: history of investigation; reconstruction of the environment; the nature of the archaeological record; methodologies for recreating the past; and finally, the lifestyles of past people – the latter representing both a statement of current knowledge and the ultimate aim for archaeologists; the goal of all the former sections. The document is reinforced by material on-line which provides further detail and resources. The Palaeolithic and Mesolithic panel report of ScARF is intended as a resource to be utilised, built upon, and kept updated, hopefully by those it has helped inspire and inform as well as those who follow in their footsteps. Future Research The main recommendations of the panel report can be summarized under four key headings:  Visibility: Due to the considerable length of time over which sites were formed, and the predominant mobility of the population, early prehistoric remains are to be found right across the landscape, although they often survive as ephemeral traces and in low densities. Therefore, all archaeological work should take into account the expectation of Palaeolithic and Mesolithic ScARF Panel Report iv encountering early prehistoric remains. This applies equally to both commercial and research archaeology, and to amateur activity which often makes the initial discovery. This should not be seen as an obstacle, but as a benefit, and not finding such remains should be cause for question. There is no doubt that important evidence of these periods remains unrecognised in private, public, and commercial collections and there is a strong need for backlog evaluation, proper curation and analysis. The inadequate representation of Palaeolithic and Mesolithic information in existing national and local databases must be addressed.  Collaboration: Multi-disciplinary, collaborative, and cross- sector approaches must be encouraged – site prospection, prediction, recognition, and contextualisation are key areas to this end. Reconstructing past environments and their chronological frameworks, and exploring submerged and buried landscapes offer existing examples of fruitful, cross-disciplinary work. Palaeolithic and Mesolithic archaeology has an important place within Quaternary science and the potential for deeply buried remains means that geoarchaeology should have a prominent role.  Innovation: Research-led projects are currently making a substantial impact across all aspects of Palaeolithic and Mesolithic archaeology; a funding policy that acknowledges risk and promotes the innovation that these periods demand should be encouraged. The exploration of lesser known areas, work on different types of site, new approaches to artefacts, and the application of novel methodologies should all be promoted when engaging with the challenges of early prehistory.  Tackling the ‘big questions’: Archaeologists should engage with the big questions of earliest prehistory in Scotland, including the colonisation of new land, how lifestyles in past societies were organized, the effects of and the responses to environmental change, and the transitions to new modes of life. This should be done through a holistic view of the available data, encompassing all the complexities of interpretation and developing competing and testable models. Scottish data can be used to address many of the currently topical research topics in archaeology, and will provide a springboard to a better understanding of early prehistoric life in Scotland and beyond.

The COVID Decade: understanding the long-term societal impacts of COVID-19. The British Academy, 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.5871/bac19stf/9780856726583.001.

Abstract:
The British Academy was asked by the Government Office for Science to produce an independent review on the long-term societal impacts of COVID-19. This report outlines the evidence across a range of areas, building upon a series of expert reviews, engagement, synthesis and analysis across the research community in the Social Sciences, Humanities and the Arts (SHAPE). It is accompanied by a separate report, Shaping the COVID decade, which considers how policymakers might respond. History shows that pandemics and other crises can be catalysts to rebuild society in new ways, but that this requires vision and interconnectivity between policymakers at local, regional and national levels. With the advent of vaccines and the imminent ending of lockdowns, we might think that the impact of COVID-19 is coming to an end. This would be wrong. We are in a COVID decade: the social, economic and cultural effects of the pandemic will cast a long shadow into the future – perhaps longer than a decade – and the sooner we begin to understand, the better placed we will be to address them. There are of course many impacts which flowed from lockdowns, including not being able to see family and friends, travel or take part in leisure activities. These should ease quickly as lockdown comes to an end. But there are a set of deeper impacts on health and wellbeing, communities and cohesion, and skills, employment and the economy which will have profound effects upon the UK for many years to come. In sum, the pandemic has exacerbated existing inequalities and differences and created new ones, as well as exposing critical societal needs and strengths. These can emerge differently across places, and along different time courses, for individuals, communities, regions, nations and the UK as a whole. We organised the evidence into three areas of societal effect. As we gathered evidence in these three areas, we continually assessed it according to five cross-cutting themes – governance, inequalities, cohesion, trust and sustainability – which the reader will find reflected across the chapters. Throughout the process of collating and assessing the evidence, the dimensions of place (physical and social context, locality), scale (individual, community, regional, national) and time (past, present, future; short, medium and longer term) played a significant role in assessing the nature of the societal impacts and how they might play out, altering their long-term effects.
