Abstract
The article discusses the concept of the “social”, which is basic for all social sciences and the object of study and perfecting impact. In professional literature, it has been revealed that the concept of the social is determined through predication with other significant phenomena of social life, such as relationships, actions, actors, structures, etc. Authors, in regard to their conception of “wisdom-oriented social science” and concretely of “sociology of wisdom”, suggest their own definition of the “social” as the intention, the image and the fulfilment of the improvement of human existence, coexistence and interaction of human beings as such. The new definition reveals the profound council of wisdom expressing the essential and principally preferable properties of nature, being and inner-perfection of the “social”.
