Synopsis "75 Years of Social Science for Social Action: Historical and Contemporary Perspectives on Spssi's Scholar-Activist Legacy (in English)"
the fundamental tension between scientific objectivity and social advocacy has been part of spssi ` s history since it was formed as an organization of social scientists in 1936. how has this tension been identified and negotiated in spssi-sponsored projects and initiatives, as well as through the lives and work of its leaders, members, and allies? what factors have contributed to heightened activism? when has spssi felt pressured to retreat from its advocacy role and why? historians and prominent spssi members grapple with these questions, and others, in an issue commemorating spssi ` s 75 years of putting social science into social action.
