About this Unit
This unit follows on from Introducing the Social Sciences A and continues to address the nature of the social sciences and the ways that it has developed as a set of disciplines through a process of questions, arguments, evidence and evaluation. In particular, this unit covers identities of gender, race, ethnicity and disability, urbanisation, migration, neighbourhoods, control and disorder, juvenile offending and governing inequalities. Integral to these content areas is an understanding of social sciences methods and evidence for describing and explaining contemporary society.
