I was watching a video about Michael Crichton (idk if I can share the link directly without counting as spam).
In the intro, the youtuber explains how Sci Fi as a genre is historically centered mainly in physics, engineering, and a little bit of chemistry. And only relatively recently (according to him, thanks to the influence of Crichton) it has explored biology a bit more. But social sciences remain largely neglected in Science Fiction.
After watching the video, I wanted to ask here: Do you think social sciences have too little presence in the genre? And do you know any good scifi centered in sociology, psychology, economics, anthropology, and the likes?
PD: The wikipedia page for social sciences also lists subjects like linguistics, criminology, and political science. Those could be cool too.
Voyage of the Space Beagle is about the power of applied pedagogy.
