In the USSR today all five million students in institutions of higher education study social sciences. Social sciences are included throughout the higher education process & include: the political history of the USSR, philosophy, political economy, & scientific communism. Social sciences are taught more intensively in humanities institutions than in ordinary colleges. Social science curricula typically are based upon equal combination of lectures & seminars followed ultimately by state examinations in scientific communism. Soviet universities & institutes usually have four special social science chairs-these entail more than 32,000 teachers. All teachers of social sciences improve their qualifications once every five years. Modified AA.

International audience ; Criminology today is riddled with much controversy, either because of its institutionalization, because of its development as part of a thriving security market or as loans that were made in very recent criminal laws.

In any case, this "social science" raises questions that are real problems for society.

Abstract This paper introduces key current themes in social sciences of energy that look beyond conventional concerns with energy consumers. Close, detailed studies of energy practices at all levels can offer insights into the ways that energy systems are enmeshed in social, legal, cultural, economic and political frameworks that pre-empt expectations about energy production, distribution and consumption. By bringing a sociological and anthropological focus onto the energy industries themselves, social sciences can offer new theoretical perspectives, reveal the political relations that accompany energy flows, and offer new ways to think about the potentials for current and future energy systems.

This book proposes a revolutionary new theory of construct measurement - called C-OAR-SE - for the social sciences. The acronym is derived from the following key elements: construct definition; object representation; attribute classification; rater entity identification; selection of item type; enumeration and scoring. The new theory is applicable to the design of measures of constructs in: Management; Marketing; Information Systems; Organizational Behavior; Psychology; and, Sociology. C-OAR-SE is a rationally rather than empirically-based theory and procedure. It can be used for designing mea
