This dictionary will be a one-volume work comprising over 1,700 entries ranging from fifty to five hundred words. The intended audience for the work are students and scholars who need ready access to defined terms in a social science outside of their immediate areas of expertise. For instance, an anthropologist may consult the dictionary regarding a definition in economics and visa versa.
