For a holistic social science: the NACEVP model applied to the environment, gender and populism
Year: 2018
Type: article
Abstract: The paper builds a research programme reaching beyond the contemporary fragmentation of social sciences toward a holistic approach considering society as one whole and capable of bridging the gap between the human and natural sciences. It is based on Michael Mann’s IEMP model studying the Ideological, Economic, Military, and Political power sources in historical sociology. Here it is extended to the NACEVP model, which is a social-theoretical research programme for the study of all objects covering Natural, Artefactual, Cultural, Economic, Violence-related, and Political power sources. Brief case analyses on environmental problems, gender, and the rise of populism follow as evaluations.
