 “How to Survive in the Fieldâ€: Alternatives to a Scientific and Educational Career in the Field of Social SciencesM. V. Vilisov () Outlines of global transformations: politics, economics, law, 2024, vol. 17, issue 1 Abstract: The article is a review of the book “Social Science Careers beyond the Academy†, published in 2023 in the USA. Applied in its content, the book, based on examples from American practice, raises a number of important scientific and practical issues relevant to modern Russia: where outside the scientific and educational sector can specialists with scientific degrees in social sciences find work, what knowledge and skills will be in demand there and whether will they be able to return later to pursue an academic career and/ or combine scientific and educational activities with work in other sectors or with running your own business? The research and practical recommendations contained in the book may be useful for a wide range of Russian readers: students, postgraduates and young scientists to specialists from university career centers. The structure of the book and the methods of research and presentation used in it can serve as a model for conducting similar research and preparing scientific, practical and educational materials that are relevant and in demand in modern Russian conditions for the scientific and educational sector in the field of social sciences. Date: 2024 Downloads: (external link) Related works: Export reference: BibTeX RIS (EndNote, ProCite, RefMan) HTML/Text Persistent link: https://EconPapers.repec.org/RePEc:ccs:journl:y:2024:id:1434 Access Statistics for this article More articles in Outlines of global transformations: politics, economics, law from Center for Crisis Society Studies |
