Journal Descriptions

BMS: Bulletin of Sociological Methodology / Bulletin de Méthodologie Sociologique is a respected quarterly scholarly journal that has served as a central platform for methodologists and social scientists since its founding in 1983. It uniquely bridges French and Anglophone academic traditions by publishing work in both languages, with abstracts available in each. The journal’s mission is to stimulate critical reflection on the tools, techniques, and logical frameworks that underpin empirical inquiry in sociology and related disciplines, urging researchers to look beyond “ready-made” methods and consider how design, implementation, and analytic choices affect the production of social knowledge. Its content includes rigorous research articles, methodological debates, comprehensive book and article reviews, and information about research centers and conferences worldwide. In addition to its core research articles, BMS publishes the Newsletter of the ISA RC33 on Logic and Methodology, promoting ongoing debate among scholars. With a commitment to empirical grounding and theoretical innovation, the journal fosters dialogue between generations of researchers, acknowledges emerging digital tools and practices, and encourages cross-disciplinary engagement. Today it continues to be published under the umbrella of SAGE Publications while maintaining close ties with sociological research networks, particularly through editorial support from the Centre Émile Durkheim.
