Abstract
ABSTRACT Marking the 75th anniversary of the International Social Science Journal , this Special Issue examines social well‐being in an era of intersecting crises that deepen inequality, climate disruption, demographic ageing, forced displacement, digital saturation, and changing family and community life. Engaging in dialogue with diverse scholarly perspectives from economics, sustainability studies, psychology, sociology, politics and social work, the issue develops an approach regarding social well‐being as a multidimensional and relational human condition. Contributions trace how welfare regimes, financial systems, and technological change shape security, opportunity, and life chances. The articles in this special issue also uncover how climate injustice and socio‐ecological degradation undermine livelihoods, cultural continuity, and multispecies futures. In addition, they expose how social ties, community, and belonging buffer loneliness, distress, and marginalisation across the life course. The articles empirically explore these themes in diverse contexts, including digital media use, financial therapy and innovation, later‐life poverty, refugee camps, caregiving under health stressors and remote work. This combined scholarly contribution shows that social well‐being is produced at the intersection of material resources, institutional quality, social relationships, and ecological conditions, and that it cannot be secured completely through narrow methodological approaches or a single disciplinary insight.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
