American Journal of Cultural Sociology (AJCS)
Journal Descriptions
The American Journal of Cultural Sociology is indexed by SCOPUS, a database listing journals and country scientific indicators and rankings, and is also indexed in Thomson Reuters’ Web of Science Core Collection, in the Social Sciences Citation Index (SSCI). SSCI provides searchable author abstracts for the leading journals in 55 social science disciplines, with a comprehensive backfile of cited reference data from 1900 to the present. AJCS’s inclusion in the SSCI provides greater discoverability for the journal and allows for real-time insight into the citation performance. This journal focuses on the cultural aspects of contemporary sociology, and creates a common forum for scholars, practitioners, and researchers worldwide to follow the latest developments and debates within the field. Since the early days of modernity many social theorists have anticipated the downfall of meaning induced by the emerging and predominant forces of rationalization and industrialization. However, in spite of it all, cultural structures and processes withstood those strong influences and developed autonomous patterns of meaning that affect many structures such as inequality, racism and marginality, gender and sexuality, crime and punishment, social movements, market success and citizen incorporation. The new discipline of cultural sociology was born in this vast mélange of phenomena with the aim to conceptualize these complex cultural processes.
