Irish Journal of Sociology (IJS)

Irish Journal of Sociology is the **official peer‑reviewed academic journal of the Sociological Association of Ireland (SAI), published with SAGE Publications. It was launched in 1991 to provide a high‑quality platform for sociological research that explores both the social dynamics of Ireland and broader theoretical and empirical contributions relevant to the discipline internationally. The journal embraces diverse methodologies and perspectives, welcoming work in qualitative, quantitative, and mixed‑method traditions. It publishes original research articles, research notes, book reviews, and shorter “in‑brief” pieces that engage with archives, databases, debates, overviews, and trends in the social sciences, broadening its relevance to scholars in anthropology, politics, social policy, social work, and related fields. The journal’s aims include stimulating scholarly discussion, disseminating innovative research, and reflecting the substantive richness of contemporary sociological inquiry. Through rigorous peer review and a commitment to ethical publishing (as a member of COPE—Committee on Publication Ethics), Irish Journal of Sociology contributes to advancing sociological scholarship and critical debate on issues ranging from social inequality, migration, identity, culture, family, work, to social change and public policy. Its readership comprises academics, postgraduate researchers, and practitioners interested in the latest developments in sociological research with Irish and comparative lenses.
