In fact, the most essential difference between humanities and social sciences lies in the educational purpose. Humanistic education solves the problem of being a man, the education of values and the education of pursuing goodness. Social science education, on the other hand, focuses on doing things, methodology and reasoning. One of the most profound problems is that humanistic education is permeated with some kind of knowledge education related to human beauty, and it is necessary to fundamentally solve the "life problem" through subtle long-term education. What social teaching education solves is how to "do", which is essentially connected with certain laws and regulations and is a normative education with superficial effects.
It is an indisputable fact that social scientists put humanities, including literature and art, in a subordinate position in the current context according to their own institutional advantages (for example, they can legislate for corresponding knowledge). This makes the humanities lose the right to judge social life in essence. When the humanities are defined by social science standards, the educational function of "emotion and value" of the humanities itself will be weakened. It can be said that the expulsion of "back" from the new middle school Chinese textbook on the grounds that "father doesn't obey the traffic rules and crosses the railway line at will" and "father's image is not handsome enough" is precisely the manifestation of society's scientific humanities.
The beauty of human nature and human feelings conveyed behind it is an enduring "goodness and beauty". This lack of content belonging to the category of humanistic education is extremely unfavorable for people to establish correct social values. In fact, social life is not only the object of social science research, but also the object of humanities research and judgment. At best, the curriculum structure of science education can only provide students with a certain cognitive ability, and it can't replace humanities education to solve the problem of being a man. The social science tendency of humanities is harmful, which not only directly leads to cultural autocracy, but also has a huge negative impact on the overall quality and moral level of a country and a nation.
