Seems to fit under sociology quite well. Economics got it's own branch mostly for historical reasons.

The sociology of scientific knowledge is a thing. Some crackpots, some very interesting work as well, e.g. "The Baby Factory" about dodgy science in psychology labs http://srd.sagepub.com/content/2/2378023115625071.abstract
Sociology is already the science of everything social (that is, people, human society).
