The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- A tool used by social scientists, social theories relate to historical debates over the validity and reliability of different methodologies, the primacy of either structure or agency, as well as the relationship between contingency and necessity.
- Social theory in an informal nature, or authorship based outside of academic social and political science, may be referred to as "social criticism" or "social commentary", or "cultural criticism" and may be associated both with formal cultural and literary scholarship, as well as other non-academic or journalistic forms of writing.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Social theory article was read about 40,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 73 and blocks with 43: each hit it takes is cut by 17 %.
