While studies in the Humanities and Social Sciences often overlap in their content and conclusions, the basic focus of each is essentially different. In the former, the focus is on 'being human'; thus, its basic goals and lessons are centered on 'the human experience' and general principles or truths about human nature. The latter focuses on facts and patterns (even general truths) about particular portions of human endeavor or activity; for example, economic, historical, or political dimensions of human life.
