Social development
For now,
social development redirects here to social progress, as this term is sometimes used to mean social progress. However I think that 'social dev.' may have a different meaning as well - i.e. the development of individuals, not societies. However I was unable to find a clear definition of any of 'soc. dev.', so until sb finds it and corrects it, I think the current redirect is a better solution then red link. --

I've added a bibliographical reference from J. B. Bury, who seems to me the best authority on the subject. It seems to me on reflection, that this article could be productively merged with Philosophical Progress and Progress (History) and even the Myth of Progress (other entries on wikipedia). I agree with Piotr that there is progress and there is regress -- the "myth" is that either one is inevitable (or alternatively that history moves necessarily in either a unitary direction or in cycles -- both beliefs having long histories).

The issue is that there is a tag on top of the page "This disambiguation page is currently linked from a large number of articles. Please help direct these ambiguous links to articles dealing with the specific meaning intended."
37 articles still link to here. Disambiguating these may not be that easy.
