El artículo presenta un panorama de la producción científica de las ciencias sociales sobre el Perú. Recoge los aportes de los pensadores peruanos representativos de su época y generación así como de los académicos vinculados a la Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos, cultores de disciplinas como la Antropología, la Arqueología, la Historia y la Sociología; comprometidos con el quehacer científico orientado a la transformación de la sociedad peruana. Asimismo, presenta los temas y propuestas de los estudiosos de nuestra realidad, cambiante y compleja, tales como el origen de la cultura peruana, la recuperación y puesta en valor de los sitios arqueológicos, el indigenismo, la otredad, el nosotros diverso, la historia de las élites y las mentalidades, el equilibrio social, la revolución, la democracia liberal así como el neoliberalismo y la globalización, con sus referentes teóricos. ; The article presents an overview of the Scientific Production in Social Sciences about Peru. From the pre-Hispanic period to the current times; it collects the contributions of emblematic Peruvian thinkers of their age and generation as well as the academics who were linked to the Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos. They were practitioners of disciplines such as anthropology, archeology, history and Sociology; and were committed to the scientific task oriented to the transformation of the Peruvian society. The matters and proposals of the scholars of our so changing and complex reality are exhibited: the origin of the Peruvian culture, the recovery and the value of the archaeological sites, the Indigenism, the otherness, the our diverse, the history of elites and mentalities, the social equilibrium, the revolution, the liberal democracy as well as the neoliberalism; and the globalization with its theoretical references.

The article examines the problem of relations between the General and the Unique in the social and political sciences. The author highlights the different views on this perspective: some scientists explain specific cases by bringing them under general theories and laws while others researchers emphasize that each case, each phenomenon is unique and shouldn't be generalization. The author theorizes that there is a methodological bridge between the generalizing spirit of social science and uniqueness of events and cases.

This article reveals the meaning and content of the linguistic and cultural studies integration into social and political science course in the training of future politicians. The article reflects the importance of linguistic and cultural studies for the formation of language competence of students as well as skills of political communication, for understanding the characteristics of the country's social and political issues. The interdisciplinary approach emphasises the relationship in the study of linguistic, cultural, and political agenda, characterises the interdisciplinary essence of regional studies. The critical discourse analysis (CDA) of political texts was chosen as the key methodological strategy for the efficient development of political communication and problem-solving skills. The authors propose the implementation of a special interdisciplinary course for the first-year students majoring in philology and political studies, focused on the studying the political and cultural features of a language-targeted country by means of CDA. We compared the results of students' political communication skills development prior and post- course period and we observed the improvement according to the following criteria: perception of the vocabulary and functional language structures (by 17%); analysis of cultural and political agenda from the explicit and implicit language structures (by 23%); text annotation (by 50%); text production, distribution and target audience analysis (by 10%). Moreover, it was observed that CDA implementation facilitated the development of critical thinking skills as well as the skills of texts decoding.

Centered on the trajectory of the emancipation of Roma people in Scandinavia, Romani Liberation is a powerful challenge to the stereotype describing Romani as passive and incapable of responsibility and agency. The author also criticizes benevolent but paternalistic attitudes that center on Romani victimhood. The first part of the book offers a comprehensive overview of the chronological phases of Romani emancipation in Sweden and other countries. Underscoring the significance of Roma activism in this process, Jan Selling profiles sixty Romani activists and protagonists, including numerous original photos. The narrative is followed by an analysis of the concepts of historical justice and of the process of decolonizing Romani Studies. Selling highlights the impact of the historical contexts that have enabled or impeded the success of the struggles against discrimination and for equal rights, emphasizing Romani activism as a precondition for liberation. The particular Swedish framework is accentuated by a stimulating preface by the international activist Nicoleta Bitu, and afterwords by two prominent Romani advocates, the politician Soraya Post and the singer, author, and elder Hans Caldaras.

Those aiming to respond to the recognised shortage in quantitative skills within the UK social sciences have increasingly focused on the content of undergraduate degree programmes. Problems occur when 'quantitative methods (QM)' are generally confined to a dedicated module, detached from substantive topics. This model makes it hard for students to understand or engage with the contribution of quantitative research to their discipline and can perpetuate negative perceptions of quantitative training. We suggest a solution to this problem is 'quantitative embedding', in which quantitative evidence and methods are incorporated into substantive teaching in the social sciences. We illustrate quantitative embedding with case studies from an ESRC funded project based in The University of Manchester, where teaching partnerships have developed curriculum innovations in Sociology and Politics. The paper then discusses the challenges of disseminating quantitative embedding, highlighting the need to bridge separate 'communities of practice' that can isolate quantitative specialists.

Les deux disciplines de science politique et de science studies utilisent toutes deux les mots de « politique » et de « science », mais dans des sens qui semblent incommensurables. L'article propose d'expliquer aux spécialistes des sciences politiques l'emploi quelque peu inhabituel qui est fait de ces termes par les praticiens des études sur les sciences, de façon à établir un dialogue entre les deux disciplines. Il montre en particulier qu'un seul des sens du mot « science » (sur quatre) suppose une coupure radicale entre science et politique (qui peut prendre six sens). Cet effort de clarification effectué permettrait d'abandonner l'idée qu'il existe deux domaines distincts (la science et la politique) et permettrait aux disciplines de collaborer en qualifiant les différents stades des affaires (les issues) qui forment la vraie substance des sciences aussi bien que des politiques.

The article concentrates on the most essential elements of a social science as research, whereby research is strictly interpreted as the verification of a theory in a particular field but neither as "theorie sans terrain" nor "terrain sans theorie". Yet even if this particular employment in the field of social science is explicitly conceived of as privileging the logic of discovery and the strictures of proof in opposite to all preconstructed themes, theories and traditions of different disciplines, it cannot simply be reduced to the standpoint of pure logic. Engagement for social science as reflexive research means to further its practical, political acceptance by using the results obtained from research, means fighting for her autonomisation in terms of contributing to the creation of appropriate forms of sociability for its activities and reception (such as the formation of a reading public, discussion forums, effective tools with which to combat social barriers to the attainment of knowledge, etc.). ; The article concentrates on the most essential elements of a social science as research, whereby research is strictly interpreted as the verification of a theory in a particular field but neither as "theorie sans terrain" nor "terrain sans theorie".

The author analyzes the background of the recent disputes on the relevance of humanities and social sciences at national public universities in Japan. Based on the analysis, several themes emerge, including long term governmental policies to prioritize STEM fields, and the difficulties of identifying the values of the humanities and social sciences in countries that are linguistically isolated in the age of globalization.

This dissertation investigates the history of Science Studies (or Science and Technology Studies, STS) as it became a distinct area of expertise and academic inquiry during the Cold War. The dissertation pursues five distinct histories, each focused on a confined mode of analysis of science that articulated, evaluated, and rationalized Cold War sensibilities and concerns. The case studies in question are : (1) UNESCO and the framework of "scientific humanism" promoted by its two visionary founders, Julian Huxley and Joseph Needham, and implemented in UNESCO's major history of science project, History of Mankind, in the 1950s and 1960s; (2) the Congress for Cultural Freedom and its quest, in the 1960s and 1970s, to promote "science studies" as part of its broader agenda to offer a renewed, "post-Marxist," framework for liberalism, (3) the Salk Institute for Biological Studies, which in the first ten years of its existence, 1962-1972, undertook the bold initiative of launching a sustained inquiry into social studies of modern biology; (4) the short-lived "philosophical phase" in medical ethics, marked by medical ethicists' interest in and appropriations from post-positivist philosophy of science, which I explore by analyzing the series of workshops organized under the auspices of the Hastings Center in the late 1970s and early 1980s; and (5) a particular mode of reflection on science and its intellectual foundations developed by Soviet philosophers in the 1960s - 1970s under the name of "naukovedenie." All these modes of analyses of science represent roads not taken. The "vision" of science studies all these groups were promoting is different from science studies as we know it today. Yet these alternative visions, in which the issues of science politics were inseparable from those of science policy, science organization, and science governance, constitute an important "pre-history" of Science Studies. I argue that the promotion of the studies of science as a politically relevant area of expertise, undertaken within existing powerful institutional structures outside academia, helped to legitimize the disciplinary identity of science studies in the age of the Cold War
