| English abstract | Maxwell’s contribution to unification of electricit y, magnetism and optics completely changed nineteenth-century physic s, and its recategoriza - tion set the bases for the twentieth-century physic s revolution. Modern social science is a fragmented field, characterized both b y a poor integration between the concepts of economics, sociology, anthropology, psychology and history, and for a striking isolation from natural science. This article will explore the importance of incorporating to social science the m ethodological criteria of Maxwell’s own conception in favor of a non-reductio nist wide-ranging causal and conceptual integration between social science a nd natural science |
