Interdisciplinary meeting in the social sciences

On 5 February, the staff of the Centre for Sociocultural Research together with the staff of the Laboratory of Comparative Social Research, the Centre for Stability and Risk Studies, and the Department of Psychology of the National Research University Higher School of Economics came together to exchange ideas and experience in their respective fields.

This meeting provided a forum for discussing the current research of each of the participants. Colleagues presented their work covering a wide range of social and cultural issues, including important aspects of social stability, cultural change and psychological research.

Special attention was paid to the possibilities of interdisciplinary co-operation and joining forces to address complex social challenges. The participants of the meeting expressed their hope that such co-operation would allow to reach new heights in research and increase the efficiency of implementation of scientific developments into practice.

They also outlined ways of future cooperation, including joint research projects, exchange of data and methodologies, as well as the organisation of seminars and conferences. Such collaboration opens new horizons for the social sciences and strengthens academic ties.
