International inequalityInternational inequality refers to inequality between countries, as compared to global inequality, which is inequality between people across countries. International inequality research has primarily been concentrated on the rise of international income inequality, but other aspects include educational and health inequality, as well as differences in medical access. Reducing inequality within and among countries is the 10th goal of the UN Sustainable Development Goals and ensuring that no one is left behind is central to achieving them.
Philosophy of social scienceThe philosophy of social science is the study of the logic, methods, and foundations of social sciences (psychology, cultural anthropology, sociology, etc...). Philosophers of social science are concerned with the differences and similarities between the social and the natural sciences, causal relationships between social phenomena, the possible existence of social laws, and the ontological significance of structure and agency.
Ostracisme (sociologie)L’ostracisme (ou rejet social) est une forme d'exclusion délibérée d’un individu d’une relation interpersonnelle ou d’une relation sociale. Cela inclut le rejet interpersonnel et le rejet sentimental. Un individu peut être rejeté, à cause d’une base individuelle, par un autre individu ou par un groupe entier de personnes. En outre, le rejet peut se manifester par des actes de harcèlement, d'intimidation ou par des actions physiques et/ou morales blessantes et/ou ridicules ou passives qui consisteront dans le fait d’ignorer une personne ou de lui infliger un type de « bizutage » silencieux.
