Sociology of Education (SOE)

Sociology of Education is a flagship quarterly, peer-reviewed academic journal that has served as a central forum for advancing scholarship on educational systems, policies, and experiences through rigorous sociological inquiry since 1963. The journal publishes original research articles, theoretical essays, and critical analyses that explore the complex interplay between educational institutions and broader social processes. Its scope encompasses studies of inequality and stratification, cultural and social capital, school organization and governance, policy impacts, student identity and achievement, and the role of education in social reproduction and mobility. By integrating diverse methodologies—quantitative, qualitative, and mixed approaches—Sociology of Education highlights how education both reflects and shapes social structures, norms, and power relations in societies worldwide. The journal is widely cited and indexed in major academic databases including Scopus and the Social Sciences Citation Index. It is published by SAGE Publications in association with the American Sociological Association (ASA), which underscores its strong professional foundation and reputation in the sociology of education community. The journal invites contributions from scholars globally and fosters interdisciplinary dialogue among sociologists, educators, policymakers, and social scientists seeking to understand education as a deeply social phenomenon.
