Features: In the 20th century, the social sciences made unprecedented progress in both theoretical and methodological construction, as well as in the institutionalization of disciplines, playing a significant role in helping humanity address and manage its social and behavioral issues. However, with the new developments in human society in the second half of the 20th century and the expansion of human activities, the research in the social sciences has inevitably had to continuously update its theories and methods, review the various research achievements in the field, and seriously confront the new challenges posed by the new century. The articles in this book are selected from the publications of Social Sciences Abroad since the year 2000, covering both summaries of the development of individual disciplines and the emergence of new theories and schools of thought alongside new research topics, as well as reflections and preparations for the future as a field. This collection represents the outcomes of Chinese scholars' research, exploration, and promotion of social science research abroad at the turn of the century.
