Aims & Scope
Socius: Sociological Research for a Dynamic World is an open access journal that aims to make new research readily available.
It provides an online forum for the rapid dissemination of peer-reviewed empirical work, produced in time to be relevant to ongoing debates.
Socius is a place to find fresh ideas, early discoveries, and open theoretical problems that can pose new challenges for social science.
Committed to an efficient peer review process and open access, Socius’s online format ensures that all scientifically sound sociological research from any subfield can be published, without the volume constraints imposed by traditional print limits.
Traditional manuscript styles are welcome, but we strongly encourage short papers and those providing interesting empirical findings that may spark innovation and future work.
