The Ontology of Social Science: Understanding the Nature of Agency, Structure, and Social Causality
Abstract
This community service aims to strengthen the academic community's understanding of the ontology of social sciences, particularly in relation to agency, structure, and social causality in the context of the digital age. Activities are carried out through in-depth literature reviews and the development of easily accessible educational materials to improve the philosophical literacy of educators and researchers. The process of service includes identifying key concepts, analyzing contemporary theories, and compiling applicable educational summaries. As a result, the target community gains a more comprehensive understanding of the dynamics of social reality and the epistemological challenges that arise. The contribution of this activity lies in providing a conceptual foundation that strengthens the quality of social research in the academic environment
