In the traditions of Russian socio-philosophical reasoning ("discourse") methodological and theoretical problems of social science are posed and approaches to their solution are proposed, taking into account the peculiarities of cognition of the second Nature, in the process of which feelings, reason and intuition participate. The principles and main aspects of the methodology are postulated. The main objects of research are highlighted: local civilization and the state. The definition of the "state" as a supra-historical creator of history is given, its two main formations of modern times with their features are indicated: the empire and the national state. The author's understanding of politics and public institutions is also given. The end–to-end idea of the work, at the same time its premise, and the inevitable consequence is the need for a sovereign Russian social science, sprouting from the domestic sociophilosophical heritage.

Abstract: What is the role of the Social Sciences and Humanities (known collectively as SSH) in the journey to the Fourth Industrial Revolution? What is the impact of these disciplines for the challenges the world faces, supposedly defined by a highly dynamic phase of industrial
and social restructuring, where the adaptive capacity of societies needs to be enhanced by specific skills and techno-social dependencies? What is the role of SSH in building cognitive competences, and new professional paths? This paper, part of the special focus of the Annual Review of New
Directions in the Humanities, seeks to unveil the importance of SSH disciplines to the major STEM disciplines (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics). Although disciplines and research in Social Sciences and Humanities play a fundamental role in the production of knowledge relevant
to society, the last decade of the 20th century has seen a continuous trend towards their devaluation. After a relatively glorious period during the first half of the century, when SSH disciplines still held a relative social influence, the arrival of digital technologies in 1990s, accelerated
their decline. This article traces a brief overview of this decline and explores some of the causes as well as the challenges in valuing SSH. Focusing mainly on Europe, the paper presents the attempts, on behalf of the European Commission, to correct this decline. It also outlines some new
ideas that could help a true integration and transfer of knowledge across STEM AND STEAM disciplines, such as the creation of specific 'missions'. Precisely, one of the diagnoses of the Horizon 2020 experience in Europe has been that investment in research is not effectively linked to the
solution of specific problems. Thus, it is necessary to put in motion co-creation mechanisms among research disciplines and advance in the establishment of intersectoral bridges, bringing SSH research closer to the industry and other social sectors in order to solve the pressing challenges
we face (climate change, mass migration, economic crisis, etc.)

Social cost is a comparative new conception in economics though it has been undergone wide and thorough studies in social science area. Its related economic analysis is still at its sociological stage. The paper discusses its economic nature: both its social and capital property, evaluates therefore China's "paradox of social science", namely the coexistence of "sound" micro social and "weak" macro social capital at the meantime. It analyzes the advantage and function of government in the productive social capital. Key words: social capital; social property; capital property; micro social capital; macro social capital Résumé: Le coût social est une nouvelle conception comparative dans l'économie, même si elle a été l'objet d'études approfondies dans le domaine des sciences sociales. Ses analyses économiques reste encore à son stade sociologique. Le document traite de sa nature économique: non seulement sa propriété sociale mais aussi sa propriété de capitaux et évalue donc le "paradoxe de la science sociale" de la Chine, à savoir la coexistence d'un micro-capital social "favorable" et un macro-capital social "faible". Il analyse les avantages et les fonctions du gouvernement dans la production du capital social. Mots-clés: le capital social; la propriété sociale; propriété de capitaux; micro capital social; macro capital social 摘 要:社會資本概念在社會學領域已經進行了廣泛和深入的研究,但是在經濟學領域還是一個比較新的概念,當前, 對社會資本的經濟分析還停留在社會學研究的範圍之內。本文分析了社會資本的經濟性質:社會屬性和資本屬性,以這兩個經濟性質為起點從經濟學角度闡述了我國的"社會資本悖論"—"雄厚"的微觀社會資本和"薄弱"的宏觀社會資本同時存在,並論證了政府在生產社會資本中的優勢和作用。 關鍵詞:社會資本; 社會屬性; 資本屬性; 微觀社會資本; 宏觀社會資本

This article examines two empirical research traditions—experimental economics and the social identity approach in social psychology—that may be seen as attempts to falsify and verify the theory of collective intentionality, respectively. The article argues that both approaches fail to settle the issue. However, this is not necessarily due to the alleged immaturity of the social sciences but, possibly, to the philosophical nature of intentionality and intentional action. The article shows how broadly Davidsonian action theory, including Hacking's notion of the looping effect of the human sciences, can be developed into an argument for the view that there is no theory-independent true nature of intentional action. If the Davidsonian line of thought is correct, the theory of collective intentionality is, in a sense, true if we accept the theory.
