From Crisis to Resilience: Rethinking Social Science in a Transformative Era

Description

Social scientists face significant challenges, from assessing the impact of global warfare and the cost-of-living crisis to navigating the effects of migration and social polarization. Our profession is amidst unprecedented times, with every field experiencing remarkable transformations. From shifts in work dynamics and the emergence of unpredictable daily routines to the ascent of illiberalism, political polarization, and paradoxical communication patterns, societal norms are rapidly evolving. Furthermore, challenges such as AI's transformative potential, the proliferation of fake news, and the imperative for sustainable behaviors urge social scientists to adopt flexible approaches and embrace dynamic roles in our society.

Researchers, policymakers, practitioners, activists, and students are invited to join this vital conversation and contribute their perspectives to rethinking social science in a transformative era. Together, let us redefine social science amidst these extraordinary times and chart a course toward a more just, sustainable, and resilient world.
