This more woven approach allows for a more blended study, potentially instilling in students that these social sciences fields are not mutually exclusive, that issues can be interrogated with knowledge from the various social sciences, and—possibly most importantly—that these lenses must all be considered for such problems to be solved.	cache/ch-6929.pdf	txt/ch-6929.txt
