Journal Descriptions

The Journal of Sociology is a well‑established quarterly, peer‑reviewed scholarly journal published by SAGE Publications on behalf of The Australian Sociological Association. Founded in 1965, it has become a prominent venue for high‑quality research that explores both foundational and contemporary sociological questions. The journal’s mission is to foster critical and creative sociological inquiry that deepens understanding of social structures, processes, and changes in local and global contexts. It publishes original research articles, conceptual pieces, and thematic reviews that draw on diverse methodologies — quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods — to engage with social life at multiple levels, from individual experiences to institutional and systemic dynamics. The Journal of Sociology emphasizes scholarship that bridges theory and practice, addressing urgent societal issues like social inequality, migration, education, health disparities, environmental change, cultural transformation, and social policy. It features contributions from leading sociologists and emerging scholars around the world, reflecting its global reach and scholarly influence. Through its rigorous editorial standards and commitment to methodological diversity, the journal promotes sociological research that is intellectually innovative, socially relevant, and responsive to evolving social phenomena. Its quarterly issues include research articles, special theme sections, and book reviews that collectively enrich the discipline and support scholarly dialogue among academics, students, and practitioners.
