The guest editors’ preface to the special issue of Etica&Politica/Ethics&Politics “Citizen Science with and within the Social Sciences and the Humanities” discusses the background of citizen science development in Europe with a specific focus on the social sciences and the humanities. It traces the challenges faced in giving visibility to the Social Sciences and Humanities (SSH) in the citizen science field, and highlights the advantages of using an “umbrella term” to unify citizen science and participatory research practices across disciplines.
