Understanding Social Science

Anthropology, psychology, philosophy, sociology, ethics, and political science are some of the many branches of social science. Anthropology is the field of study dedicated to examining humans, their behavior, and the societies, both past and present, in which they exist.

Political science engages in the study of governance systems and analyzes political behavior, thoughts, and activities.
