The Science of SocietyPacific Standard grapples with the nation’s biggest issues by illuminating what shapes human behavior. We examine the institutions, customs, psychological tendencies, and galvanizing ideas that define modern life, and we look for insights that will unlock a better future. We believe in the power of cutting-edge empirical research to shed new light on human affairs. And we believe in the power of great storytelling to make vivid and persuasive what is otherwise abstract. Inside each issue you’ll find:Feature articles: In the center of the magazine, you’ll find vividly reported stories that are deeply informed by interesting research; personal essays that ground sociological or cultural phenomena in lived experience; dispatches from the world of ideas that illuminate some new strand of research that promises to change the world or the way we look at it; or cogent, evidence-driven polemics that gleefully run against the grain of convention.Prospector articles: In the front of the magazine, you’ll find short, bright Prospector stories that impart a sense of discovery—as if you’ve stumbled upon an intimate scene—and that examine social and behavioral ideas that are “still in beta.” Prospectors include mini-profiles of people who are a little out there, or the illumination of a new concept that is outlandish, but promising.The Five Studies column: Five Studies explains the important—and often overlooked—research that undergirds either some of our biggest national issues, or traces an emerging new understanding of a popular subject. The topics are always timely; the studies are often surprising.Essays on economics and culture: In each issue, you’ll find reported essays on economic and cultural subjects that give readers a new way to think about our economy and our cultural touchstones. Each essay is buttressed by an understanding of the social science literature that illuminates the subject.Essays on new books: In our Books section, you’ll find critical essays that put new works—one or multiple—in their most lively and relevant context with the issues society is facing today. Our writers and editors examine popular and academic titles that are either bolstered by social and behavioral sciences, or that can be reviewed from a social or behavioral science standpoint.Our Life in the Data column: At the back of the magazine, we offer you a short personal narrative essay about the interaction between a big social or behavioral pattern—be it demographic, psychological, economic, geographic, or cultural—and a writer’s own personal, lived experience.We hope you enjoy the magazine.*Back issues and future issues are available for purchase within the App.Future issues are also available through the following auto-renewing subscription(s):-6 Issues (1 Year) at $4.99/ £2.99The subscription will include the current issue if you do not already own it and subsequently published future issues.
