  • Popular with graduates and not only social studies

    • Social science is the discipline that is massively chosen at final final tests. The point here is not only the increased interest that many schoolchildren show in its sections and topics. But also in the high demand for science as a basis for future profession, type of activity. Traditionally, social science is studied and taken for entrance exams in legal, historical, pedagogical, military and other educational institutions.
    • Properly prepare and pass exams well, get deep and complete knowledge in social studies, schoolchildren will be helped by high-quality educational materials and guides to them. To achieve all the tasks and goals set, not only basic theoretical collections are needed, but also workshops that allow you to work out all the topics and sections of the course from the fifth to the eleventh grade with high quality and in great detail.
    • Starting work on GDZ, it is important to focus on the principles:
      - its consistency, that is, its use as a basis preparatory work pre-designed effective plan, taking into account a basic level of knowledge of the student, his goals and responsibilities. Among the basic goals, in addition to preparing for the OGE / USE, is participation in subject Olympiads and competitions held at school and extracurricular sites;
      - regularly conducted control, which allows to quickly adjust plans, identify and eliminate shortcomings, evaluate the dynamics of the process and results;
      - self-training, self-selection, search for information, its evaluation and application, extensions and additions, changes in your own set educational literature as needed.
    • Among the most useful and interesting workshops in social science are the following collections:
      - workbooks on discipline;
      - KIMs on the subject;
      - social science test materials, which are especially relevant for high school students.
      The most popular are the practical manuals of the authors - Ivanova, Khoteenkova, Khromova, Fedorova and Nikitina, Mitkin, Sobolev and Vorontsov, as well as a number of others.
      Some workshops are universal and freely combined with various theoretical and practical collections of any authors. Others are bundled with a particular textbook of one or another author (group of authors) in social science.

Foreword

Handbook includes material school course"Social Science", which is tested on a single state exam. The structure of the book corresponds to the Standard of secondary (complete) education in the subject, on the basis of which exam tasks- control and measuring materials (KIM) USE.

The guide contains the following sections of the course: "Society", "Spiritual life of society", "Man", "Knowledge", "Politics", "Economics", "Social relations", "Law", which form the core of the content of public education, tested within the USE. This enhances the practical focus of the book.

The compact and visual form of presentation, a large number of diagrams and tables contribute to a better understanding and memorization of theoretical material.

In the process of preparing for the exam in social studies, it is very important not only to master the content of the course, but also to navigate the types of tasks on the basis of which written work is built, which is a form of conducting the exam. Therefore, after each topic, options for tasks with answers and comments are presented. These tasks are designed to form ideas about the form of control and measuring materials in social science, the level of their complexity, the features of their implementation, and are aimed at developing the skills tested within the USE:

- to recognize the signs of concepts, the characteristic features of a social object, the elements of its description;

- compare social objects, identifying them common features and differences;

- correlate social science knowledge with social realities that reflect them;

- evaluate various judgments about social objects from the point of view of social sciences;

– analyze and classify social information presented in various sign systems(diagram, table, diagram);

- recognize concepts and their components: correlate species concepts with generic ones and exclude unnecessary ones;

- to establish correspondences between the essential features and signs of social phenomena and social science terms, concepts;

- apply knowledge about salient features, signs of concepts and phenomena, social objects of a certain class, by choosing the necessary positions from the proposed list;

- distinguish in social information facts and opinions, arguments and conclusions;

- name terms and concepts, social phenomena that correspond to the proposed context, and apply social science terms and concepts in the proposed context;

- list the signs of a phenomenon, objects of the same class, etc.;

- to reveal by examples the most important theoretical provisions and concepts of the social sciences and humanities; give examples of certain social phenomena, actions, situations;

– apply social and humanitarian knowledge in the process of solving cognitive and practical problems that reflect actual problems human life and society;

- to carry out a comprehensive search, systematization and interpretation of social information on a specific topic from original non-adapted texts (philosophical, scientific, legal, political, journalistic);

– to formulate own judgments and arguments on certain issues on the basis of the acquired social and humanitarian knowledge.

This will overcome certain psychological barrier before the exam, associated with the ignorance of the majority of examinees, how they should arrange the result of the completed task.

Section 1 Society

Topic 1. Society as a special part of the world. The systemic structure of society

The complexity of defining the concept of "society" is primarily due to its extreme generalization, and, in addition, to its enormous significance. This has led to many definitions. this concept.

concept "society" in a broad sense of the word, it can be defined as a part of the material world that is isolated from nature, but closely connected with it, which includes: ways of human interaction; forms of association of people.

Society in the narrow sense of the word is:

a circle of people united by a common goal, interests, origin(for example, a society of numismatists, a noble assembly);

individual specific society, country, state, region(e.g. modern Russian society, French society);

historical stage in the development of mankind(For example, feudal society, capitalist society);

humanity as a whole.

Society is the product of the combined activities of many people. Human activity is a way of existence or existence of society. Society grows out of the life process itself, out of the ordinary and everyday activities of people. Not by chance latin word socio means to unite, unite, start working together. Society does not exist outside the direct and indirect interaction of people.

As a way of people's existence, society must fulfill a set of certain functions :

– production of material goods and services;

– distribution of products of labor (activity);

– regulation and management of activities and behavior;

- reproduction and socialization of a person;

spiritual production and regulation of human activity.

The essence of society lies not in the people themselves, but in the relationships they enter into with each other in the course of their life. Consequently, society is a set of social relations.


Society is characterized as dynamic self-developing system , i.e. such a system that is capable of seriously changing, at the same time retaining its essence and qualitative certainty.

Wherein system defined as complex of interacting elements. In its turn, element called some further indecomposable component of the system that is directly involved in its creation.

Basic principles of the system : the whole is not reducible to the sum of the parts; the whole generates traits, properties that go beyond individual elements; the structure of the system is formed by the interconnection of its individual elements, subsystems; elements, in turn, can have a complex structure and act as systems; there is a relationship between the system and the environment.

Accordingly, society is complex self-developing open system , which includes individual individuals and social communities united by cooperative, coordinated ties and processes of self-regulation, self-structuring and self-reproduction.

For the analysis of complex systems, similar to society, the concept of "subsystem" has been developed. Subsystems called intermediate complexes, more complex than the elements, but less complex than the system itself.

Certain groups of social relations form subsystems. The main subsystems of society are considered to be the main spheres of public life. spheres of public life .



The basis for delimiting the spheres of public life are basic human needs.


The division into four spheres of public life is conditional. You can name other areas: science, artistic and creative activity, racial, ethnic, national relations. However, these four areas are traditionally singled out as the most common and significant.

Society as a complex, self-developing system is characterized by the following specific features :

1. It is big variety of different social structures and subsystems. It is not a mechanical sum of individuals, but complete system, which has a supercomplex and hierarchical character: various kinds of subsystems are connected by subordinate relations.

2. Society is not reducible to the people who make it up, it is a system of extra- and supra-individual forms, connections and relationships which a person creates by his active activity together with other people. These "invisible" social connections and relations are given to people in their language, various actions, programs of activity, communication, etc., without which people cannot exist together. Society is integrated in its essence and should be considered as a whole, in the aggregate of its individual components.

3. Society is inherent self-sufficiency, that is, the ability to create and reproduce the necessary conditions for one's own existence through active joint activity. Society is characterized in this case as an integral single organism in which various social groups, a wide variety of activities that provide vital conditions for existence.

4. Society is exceptional dynamism, incompleteness and alternative development. chief actor in the choice of development options is a person.

5. Society highlights special status of subjects that determine its development. Man is a universal component of social systems included in each of them. Behind the confrontation of ideas in society, there is always a clash of corresponding needs, interests, goals, the impact of such social factors as public opinion, official ideology, political attitudes and traditions. inevitable for community development there is a sharp competition of interests and aspirations, in connection with which, in society, there is often a clash of alternative ideas, there is a sharp controversy and struggle.

6. Society is inherent unpredictability, non-linearity of development. Presence in society a large number subsystems, the constant clash of interests and goals of various people creates the prerequisites for the implementation different options and models of the future development of society. However, this does not mean that the development of society is absolutely arbitrary and uncontrollable. On the contrary, scientists create models of social forecasting: options for the development of a social system in its most diverse areas, computer models of the world, etc.

4. ways people interact

Answer: 4.

Topic 2. Society and nature

Nature (from gr. physis and lat. natura - to arise, to be born) - one of the most general categories of science and philosophy, originating in the ancient worldview.



The concept of "nature" is used to denote not only the natural, but also the material conditions of its existence created by man - the "second nature", to some extent transformed and formed by man.

Society as a part of nature isolated in the process of human life is inextricably linked with it.



The separation of man from the natural world marked the birth of a qualitatively new material unity, since man has not only natural properties but also social.

Society has come into conflict with nature in two respects: 1) as a social reality, it is nothing but nature itself; 2) it purposefully influences nature with the help of tools, changing it.

At first, the contradiction between society and nature acted as their difference, since man still had primitive tools of labor, with the help of which he obtained his livelihood. However, in those distant times, there was no longer a complete dependence of man on nature. As the tools of labor improved, society exerted an increasing influence on nature. Man cannot do without nature, also because technical means, making his life easier, are created by analogy with natural processes.

As soon as it was born, society began to have a very significant impact on nature, improving it somewhere, and worsening it somewhere. But nature, in turn, began to “worse” the characteristics of society, for example, by reducing the quality of health of large masses of people, etc. Society, as a separate part of nature, and nature itself exert a significant influence on each other. At the same time, they retain specific features that allow them to coexist as a dual phenomenon of earthly reality. This close relationship between nature and society is the basis of the unity of the world.

C6. Explain the relationship between nature and society using two examples.

Answer: As examples that reveal the relationship between nature and society, the following can be given: Man is not only a social, but also a biological being, and therefore, is a part of living nature. From natural environment society draws the necessary material and energy resources for its development. Degradation of the natural environment (air pollution, water pollution, deforestation, etc.) leads to a deterioration in people's health, to a decrease in their quality of life, etc.

Topic 3. Society and culture

The entire life of society is based on the expedient and diverse activities of people, the product of which is material wealth and cultural values, that is, culture. Therefore, certain types of societies are often called cultures. However, the concepts of "society" and "culture" are not synonymous.



The system of relationships is largely formed objectively, under the influence of the laws of social development. Therefore, they are not a direct product of culture, despite the fact that the conscious activity of people affects the nature and form of these relations in the most significant way.

Answer: ABBA.

Topic 4. The relationship of economic, social, political and spiritual spheres of society

A certain independence is inherent in each sphere of the life of society, they function and develop according to the laws of the whole, i.e. society. At the same time, all four main spheres not only interact, but also mutually determine each other. For example, the influence of the political sphere on culture is manifested in the fact that, firstly, each state pursues a certain policy in the field of culture, and secondly, cultural figures reflect certain political views and positions in their work.

The boundaries between all four spheres of society are easy to move, transparent. Each sphere is present one way or another in all the others, but at the same time it does not dissolve, does not lose its leading function. The question of the relationship between the main spheres of public life and the allocation of one priority is debatable. There are supporters of the defining role of the economic sphere. They proceed from the fact that material production, which is the core of economic relations, satisfies the most urgent, primary human needs, without which any other activity is impossible. There is a selection as a priority spiritual sphere of society. Proponents of this approach give the following argument: a person's thoughts, ideas, ideas are ahead of his practical actions. Major social changes are always preceded by changes in people's minds, a transition to other spiritual values. The most compromise of these approaches is the approach, the adherents of which argue that each of the four spheres of public life can become decisive in different periods. historical development.

Answer: 21221.

Topic 5. Social institutions

social institution is a historically established, stable form of organization joint activities people who perform certain functions in society, the main of which is the satisfaction of social needs.

Every social institution is characterized by the presence activity goals and specific functions that ensure its achievement.



In modern society, there are dozens of social institutions, among which the key ones can be distinguished: inheritance, power, property, family.

Within the fundamental social institutions there are very distinct divisions into small institutions. For example, economic institutions, along with the basic institution of property, include many stable systems of relations - financial, production, marketing, organizational and managerial institutions. In the system of political institutions modern society, along with the key institution of power, the institutions of political representation, presidency, separation of powers, local government, parliamentarism, etc.

Social institutions:

They organize human activity into a certain system of roles and statuses, setting patterns of people's behavior in various spheres of public life. For example, such a social institution as a school includes the roles of a teacher and a student, and a family includes the roles of parents and children. There are certain role relations between them, which are regulated by specific norms and regulations. Some of the most important norms are enshrined in law, others are supported by traditions, customs, public opinion;

They include a system of sanctions - from legal to moral and ethical;

streamline, coordinate many individual actions of people, give them an organized and predictable character;

Provide standard behavior of people in socially typical situations.

Functions of social institutions: explicit (officially declared, recognized and controlled by society); hidden (performed covertly or unintentionally).

When the discrepancy between these functions is large, there is a double standard social relations which threatens the stability of society. Even more dangerous is the situation when, along with official institutions, so-called shadow institutions which assume the function of regulating the most important social relations (for example, criminal structures).

Social institutions define society as a whole. Any social transformations carried out through changes in social institutions.

Each social institution is characterized by the presence of an activity goal and specific functions that ensure its achievement.

C5. What is the meaning of social scientists in the concept of "institutions of society"? Drawing on the knowledge of the social science course, make two sentences containing information about the institutions of society.

Answer: The institution of society is a historically established, stable form of organizing joint activities of people who perform certain functions in society, the main of which is the satisfaction of social needs. Sample sentences: Allocate economic, political, social institutions, institutions operating in the spiritual field. Each institution of society is characterized by the presence of a goal of activity and specific functions. The institutions of society are a complex and branched formation: within the fundamental institutions there are very distinct divisions into smaller ones. From the point of view of the organization of society, the key institutions are: inheritance, power, property, family, etc.

Topic 6. Multivariance of social development. Typology of societies

Social development can be reformist or revolutionary in nature.



Reforms can take place in all spheres of public life:

- economic reforms - transformations of the economic mechanism: forms, methods, levers and organization of the country's economic management (privatization, bankruptcy law, antimonopoly laws, etc.);

social reforms- transformations, changes, reorganization of any aspects of public life that do not destroy the foundations of the social system (these reforms are directly related to people);

political reforms- changes in the political sphere of public life (changes in the constitution, the electoral system, the expansion of civil rights, etc.).

The degree of reformist transformations can be very significant, up to changes in the social system or the type of economic system: the reforms of Peter I, the reforms in Russia in the early 90s. 20th century

IN modern conditions two ways of social development - reform and revolution - are opposed to the practice of permanent reform in a self-regulating society. It should be recognized that both reform and revolution “cure” an already neglected disease, while constant and possibly early prevention is necessary. Therefore, in modern social science, the emphasis is shifted from the dilemma "reform - revolution" to "reform - innovation". Under innovation (from English innovation - innovation, innovation, innovation) is understood an ordinary, one-time improvement associated with an increase in the adaptive capabilities of a social organism in given conditions.

In modern sociology, social development is associated with the process of modernization.

Modernization (from French moderniser - modern) - it is a process of transition from a traditional, agrarian society to a modern, industrial society. Classical theories modernizations described the so-called "primary" modernization, historically coinciding with the development of Western capitalism. Later theories of modernization characterize it through the concepts of "secondary" or "catch-up" modernization. It is carried out in the conditions of the existence of a “model”, for example, in the form of a Western European liberal model; often such modernization is understood as westernization, i.e., the process of direct borrowing or planting. Essentially, this upgrade is worldwide process displacement of local, local types of cultures and social organization"universal" (Western) forms of modernity.

It is possible to identify several classifications (typologies) societies:

1) pre-written and written;

2) simple And complex(the criterion in this typology is the number of levels of management of a society, as well as the degree of its differentiation: in simple societies there are no leaders and subordinates, rich and poor, in complex societies there are several levels of management and several social strata of the population, arranged from top to bottom in descending order income);

3) primitive society, slave-owning society, feudal society, capitalist society, communist society (a formational sign acts as a criterion in this typology);

4) developed, developing, backward (the criterion in this typology is the level of development);


Formational and civilizational approaches to the study of society

The most common approaches to the analysis of social development in Russian historical and philosophical science are formational and civilizational.

The first of them belongs to the Marxist school of social science, the founders of which were the German economists, sociologists and philosophers K. Marx (1818–1883) and F. Engels (1820–1895).

The key concept of this school of social science is the category of "socio-economic formation".



Despite the relative independence, the type of superstructure is determined by the nature of the basis. It also represents the basis of the formation, determining the belonging of a particular society.

The productive forces are a dynamic, constantly developing element of the mode of production, while the relations of production are static and inert, not changing for centuries. At a certain stage, a conflict arises between the productive forces and production relations, which is resolved in the course of the social revolution, the destruction of the old basis and the transition to new stage social development, to a new socio-economic formation. The old relations of production are being replaced by new ones, which open up scope for the development of the productive forces. Thus, Marxism understands social development as a natural, objectively determined, natural-historical change of socio-historical formations:



key concept civilizational approach to the analysis of social development is the concept of "civilization", which has many interpretations.

The term "civilization" (from Latin civis - citizen) in the world historical and philosophical literature is used:

- as a certain stage in the development of local cultures (for example, O. Spengler);

- as a stage of historical development (for example, L. Morgan, F. Engels, O. Toffler);

- as a synonym for culture (for example, A. Toynbee);

- as a level (stage) of development of a particular region or a separate ethnic group.

Any civilization is characterized not so much by a production basis as by a specific one for it. way of life, value system, vision and ways of interconnection with the outside world.

IN modern theory civilization, there are two approaches.



Various researchers distinguish many local civilizations (for example, an English historian, sociologist, diplomat, public figure A. Toynbee (1889–1975) counted 21 civilizations in the history of mankind), which can coincide with the borders of states (Chinese civilization) or cover several countries (ancient, Western). Usually, the whole variety of local civilizations is divided into two large groups - western and eastern.



Thus, the formation focuses on the universal, general, repetitive, and civilization - on the local-regional, unique, original.



Comparative analysis allows us to conclude that the existing approaches in science should not be considered as mutually exclusive. They must be treated from the point of view of the principle of complementarity, taking into account the noted advantages of each of the approaches.

B1. Write down the missing word in the diagram.



Answer: Revolution.

The direct subject of part of scientific research has become a person and the society that he forms. Social science is one of the sciences, the center of study of which has become society. In our article, we will touch on this issue in order to recall what social science studies and what interesting data it can provide.

Sphere of study of social science

Let's start by giving an interpretation of the concept in order to gradually delve into the topic. So, social science is a science that comprehensively studies the life of society and its significance for a person.

As a discipline entirely focused on the study of human society in all its manifestations. Its connections with other sciences are very wide, as is the variety of aspects of social life considered.

Relationship with other sciences

As an independently developing science, social science includes some bases of other humanitarian ones. Among them are philosophy, psychology, in particular social psychology, ethics, sociology, history, law, political science. In addition, social science has the foundations of economics.

So many broad interdisciplinary connections are due to the fact that each of the sciences operates with its own vision of human society. Social science gives a complete picture of this concept, taking into account the representation of each of the disciplines.

All social sciences in the modern research world are connected into a single body of knowledge and methods, united in social science. Based on such a wide coverage of the problems of the social life of mankind, it is able to provide answers to many pressing questions of interest to society. Penetrates social science with the goals and results of its scientific research in various areas human activity: from social to economic, political and spiritual.

Thus, we summarize what has already been said: social science is the study human life in society, most fully, unlike many other humanitarian disciplines.

Social science as a school subject

In every school in Russia, social science is included in the list of subjects taught. Earlier, in Soviet times, a similar discipline was called social science.

Today, the study of social science within the walls of the school ends with the exam. The practical significance lies, first of all, in the adaptation of students to the dynamism of social life. For us, this is already obvious based on the data that the discipline of social science studies.

There is a familiarization with various aspects of this process, it expands and helps in the future to determine the type of activity, the choice of the further direction of training.

We also note the formative role of modern social science on the part of citizenship. The political, economic side of human activity is revealed and formed into a whole picture.

Who needs to study this discipline?

We have already found out at this stage that social science is studying all aspects of the life of human society. At school, this discipline is a mandatory part of the program. And who should study it deeper when receiving a specialized education?

As we remember, the spectrum of research in social science today affects all social and some other sciences. Therefore, it is worth studying it in depth for students of such specialties as sociology, which is perhaps the most obvious, psychology, political science, jurisprudence, jurisprudence, cultural studies, management, and pedagogy.

In other words, for all specialties that further provide for work with people, the information and conclusions of the discipline under consideration are topical. This conclusion comes from what we have already found out: what the subject of "social science" studies.

Is social science a science?

The development of the discipline, which has become the subject of our article, continues actively today. In scientific circles, there are discussions about whether social science is a science as such. Most of the signs speak in favor of a positive verdict. We already know that social science is a science that studies all manifestations of social life.

Thus, this discipline strives to record facts and patterns as objectively as possible, which is inherent in true science. The problematic point is that the subject of social science, human society and all manifestations of his activities, too broad and dynamic. Therefore, it cannot fully know it by its own methods.

The rationality of social science also brings it closer to science. It does not contradict exact disciplines, such as mathematics, although it does not have such clearly defined conclusions of its own.

And, finally, the last - social science does not accept superstition just like any other science. Collecting individual, most important aspects of other social sciences, it also adheres to the principle of the validity of facts.

Conclusion

In our article, we touched on the question of what social science studies. It, in fact, is a complex of sciences affecting all possible manifestations of the life of society. From this we can draw the following conclusion: the subject of study of social science is extremely wide, therefore this science cannot give exhaustive accurate data about it for objective reasons.

Human society with its laws, specific facts is a special constantly changing subject. Accordingly, the development of social science is constantly taking place. It has obvious connections with the rest as well as economics, jurisprudence.

Social science is a science that studies society in all its manifestations. How school subject it is a must to study. Its practical value is also high.

Social science is studied by schoolchildren starting from the 5th grade and continues throughout the entire subsequent schooling. The social studies course includes study of a number of social disciplines: history, economics, law, philosophy, sociology and political science.

When studying social science, these sciences are studied not as individual items, and their complex interaction with each other is considered. At the same time, schoolchildren will be able to see a complex picture of the world, in which each of the individual disciplines contributes its small fraction.

At the end of the school, graduates can take an exam in social studies in the USE format.

  • It should be noted that social science is one of the most popular elective subjects for the exam.

What topics are covered in social studies at school

In 5th grade the foundations of social science as a subject are studied. The societies that existed earlier are considered, and the history of the development of these societies is studied.

In 6th grade schoolchildren get acquainted with the main spheres of public life: economic, spiritual, social, political and legal.

In the 7th grade the relationship between undergrowth and the surrounding society is considered. In addition, internal problems and issues faced by adolescents are also considered. The factors that influence the formation of the personality of a teenager are studied.

In 8th grade there is an in-depth study of certain spheres of society, for example, social. The basics of conflictology are also studied.

In 9th grade the legal sphere of society is studied in more detail. In addition, the concept of morality is explored.

In 10th grade all spheres of public life are considered in detail as a complex interacting system.

In 11th grade in addition to repetition and in-depth study of the economic and legal sphere of society, the main socio-political problems of the development of society are studied.

All materials are divided into classes:
