Economics explains a lot of the social phenomena of the world and plays a major role in each of the other branches.(i.e. In sociology: haves vs. have nots, crime, what's going on in society; In political science: why countries do what they do, international trade, even war; In psychology: a person's mindset is affected by their socio-economic status; etc).
