TRIZ has gained an increasing presence in the engineering sciences in the last decades. However, due to its technical roots, its use in the social sciences is still very limited. Looking at three key areas of TRIZ, its philosophy, problem structuring tools, and idea generation tools, suggestions will be made how these areas could be adopted in social science in order to facilitate wider adoption of this method.
