== NPOV Dispute - Overview ==
The overview violates Misplaced Pages's NPOV policy in that it casts social studies, and all social sciences, as pseudoscience, faulting its methodologies and applications. Those need to be explained without claiming that they're contradictory or ineffectual. ] (]) 00:14, 6 December 2017 (UTC)

Merged with Citizenship education ?

I have discovered that we have also an article about Citizenship education: is it really different from Social Studies ? Couldn't we merge them ? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Breizhou (talk • contribs) 10:13, 2 June 2010 (UTC)

Citizenship education, to my understanding, is about educating immigrants to a country about the culture and basic ideals of the populace of the nation so that they are socially prepared to live life in that new country. MrMonday1 (talk) 05:28, 19 February 2011 (UTC)
They are different and should not be merged. Social studies is taught to K-12 levels and includes subjects such as sociology, history, political science, economics, religion, geography, psychology, anthropology, and civics. Citizenship education focuses primarily on democracy, justice, rights and responsibilities, identities and diversity; it is somewhat comparable to the Government courses taught to U.S. high school students, a particular subject within Social studies.
