Promoting social science literacy one video at a time
In addition to our animated historical documentaries, Armchair Academics produces a range of educational content on the social sciences, focusing on the theories, methods, and intellectual history of anthropology and sociology. Our social science content is divided into three different series: Off the Shelf (long-form, in-depth discussions of social science); Theory to Go (short-form introductions to major concepts and theories); and our Curated Lists series (exploring specific authors, books, and theories in an accessible, platform-friendly format).
