Re-inventing the Social Sciences
Through its programmes the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation seeks to support reflections and endeavours on issues of a global nature and on crucial problems to the collective search of a better future for society. In this context the Foundation created in 1993 the Gulbenkian Commission on the Restructuring of the Social Sciences, with Professor Immanuel Wallerstein as its chair, which produced the report “Open the Social Sciences”, a serious, generous, and provocative book (translated now in more than 20 languages worldwide) aiming at overcoming the existing disciplinary structure constraining the further development of the social sciences.
Naturally, the Foundation considered the OECD project of organising a series of international workshops on the future of social sciences as an initiative of great importance, and was eager to host this final session.
