Social sciences are not a field of science that can be defined or restricted to one or two disciplines. They have subbranches such as anthropology, psychology, sociology, literature, education and philosophy, each of which has different purposes, functions and objectives. Definitions, boundaries, and assumptions about social sciences disciplines stand on scientific approaches. No criterion makes one field of social science superior to another. This book, titled Current Debates in Social Studies, has been prepared with an understanding that regards every social science as essential and valuable. The book contains seventeen studies, each of which is prepared by expert researchers, each belonging to different fields of social sciences. These studies on current issues and problems will also be the source of future studies in related fields.

“This book about risk and disaster—and how they get amplified—is fascinating and hugely important as we face an ever-more-turbulent world.” —Rebecca Solnit, award-winning author of A Field Guide to Getting Lost The first decade of the twenty-first century saw a remarkable number of large-scale disasters. Earthquakes in Haiti and Sumatra underscored the serious economic consequences that catastrophic events can have on developing countries, while 9/11 and Hurricane Katrina showed that first world nations remain vulnerable.

Abstract: This paper examines the export performance of 99 countries over 1995-2004 to understand the relative roles of export growth through "discovery" of new products and growth during post-discovery phases of the export product cycle - acceleration and maturation - in existing markets and expansion into new geographic markets. The authors find that expanding existing products in existing markets (growth at the intensive margin) has greater weight in export growth than diversification into new products and new geographic markets (growth at the extensive margin). Moreover, growth into new geographic markets appears to be more important than discovery of new export products in explaining export growth. Of particular importance is whether an exporting country succeeds in reaching more national markets that are already importing the product it makes. This geographic index of market penetration is a powerful explanatory variable of export performance. This suggests that governments should not focus solely or even primarily on the discovery channel, but also seek to identify and address market failures that are constraining exporters in subsequent phases of the export cycle.
