Integrating natural and social science research Social sciences (for example, economics, law, sociology, political sciences] have important roles to play in the study of biodiversity loss and change, since the main causes of the global biodiversity crisis are anthropogenic. Social sciences have a long and pluralistic tradition of studying human aspects of the world: behaviours, activities, societies and their values and institutions (political, economic, cultural or social). The roles of social sciences in interdisciplinary biodiversity research programmes are manifold. By providing explanations for social phenomena and how they German research vessel Polarstern' on a deep-water expedition in the Arctic Ocean. relate to the natural phenomena in question, they improve knowledge and contribute to finding potential solutions.
