Acta Sociologica is a quarterly, international, peer-reviewed journal founded in 1955. It is a general interest journal that publishes theoretical and empirical papers of high quality and of interest to a broad sociological audience. Acta Sociologica is the journal of the Nordic Sociological Association, and the editorship rotates among sociology departments in the Nordic countries.
Acta Sociologica publishes original and innovative sociological papers of high quality carried out from different theoretical and methodological starting points. These papers can be in the format of short or long articles presenting original theoretical and empirical studies as well as meta-analyses and reviews of fields of research, commentaries on previously published papers and academic discussions in sociology, book reviews, and review essays. Papers that help mediate between Nordic and international scholarly discussions are encouraged. Acta is a general interest sociology journal, and papers must be of interest to a broad sociological audience.
Furthermore, Acta welcomes proposals for special issue calls for papers on topics of general sociological interest. We encourage proposals for special issues that aim to mediate between Nordic and international sociology, e.g., by combining long articles with shorter articles and comments. Before submitting a proposal for a special issue call for papers, please consult the Guidelines for editing a special issue in Acta Sociologica. To submit a proposal for a special issue call for papers or inquire about your idea’s fit, write us at actasociologica@samf.ku.dk.
