Summary
Social scientific research has developed in tandem with sociocultural changes and
histories of humans. Different disciplines such as economics, psychology, sociology,
anthropology, cognitive sciences, political science, and law have deployed particular
theoretical perspectives, methodology and scientific vocabulary in analyzing the
sociocultural dimensions of human development. The examination of the history of
Homo sapiens that began some 100 000 years ago will show that humans use culture to
adjust to environmental changes. Humans are symbol-producing creatures. They utilize
many sociopolitical categories such as race, nation, and ethnicity. Different human
groups have deployed these categories of race, gender, and ethnicity for achieving
sociopolitical objectives.
In social sciences, human and social development has traditionally measured in terms of
both quantity and quality. The characteristics of social structures strongly influence the
way individuals develop their human potentiality. An institution is an enduring set of
cultural ideas and social relationship that is organized in order to accomplish collective
goals. The relationship between the social and cultural development indicators and the
conventional economic development indicators will be discussed. Some argue that
economic factors such as income and occupational profile have a direct influence on
how people behave in social and cultural spheres. Othe
