Abstract

The Issue Editor Speaks

The UPLB University Publications Office is honored to introduce this Special Edition of the UP Los Baños Journal, curated by the Department of Social Sciences (DSS), College of Arts and Sciences in celebration of the department’s 50th Anniversary. This milestone stands as a testament to the department's unwavering commitment to excellence in social science research, teaching, and intellectual discourse.

This special issue is not just a collection of articles but a rich tapestry of interdisciplinary perspectives and methodologies. It delves into the complexities of human society, exploring cultural dynamics, historical contexts, and geopolitical analyses. The research featured here reflects the depth and breadth of inquiry that the DSS has fostered over the last five decades.

The publication serves as a dual reflection: one of the Department’s scholarly legacy and one of its ongoing vision. It underscores the critical role social sciences play in addressing contemporary challenges and understanding the dynamic forces that shape our ever- evolving world.

We extend our heartfelt congratulations to the Department of Social Sciences, especially to the the authors, reviewers, and editorial team who have worked diligently to bring this edition to life. This publication is not just a milestone but a beacon for future scholars and a catalyst for meaningful conversations and actions.

To our readers, we invite you to engage with the ideas and insights in these pages with curiosity and openness. Let this special issue inspire new thoughts and dialogues, advancing knowledge and innovation in the field.

Let us all continue to uphold the mission of the UP Los Baños Journal: to foster knowledge, dialogue, and innovation across all fields of study.
