Articles

International Sociology Journal publishes original, peer-reviewed research that advances the understanding of social structures, cultural dynamics, and human behavior across diverse societies. The journal welcomes both theoretical and empirical works that contribute to global sociological discourse and address contemporary social challenges.

Research Articles – Empirical and analytical studies exploring topics such as social inequality, globalization, migration, identity, and social transformation. Articles should follow the IMRAD structure, presenting clear methodology, data analysis, and discussion of theoretical and practical implications.

Theoretical Papers – Conceptual contributions that propose or refine sociological theories, frameworks, or methodologies. Submissions may critically examine classical and contemporary approaches or introduce new perspectives on social behavior and cultural change.

Review Articles – Systematic or narrative reviews summarizing current developments in sociology and related disciplines. Reviews should identify research trends, theoretical debates, and future directions for sociological inquiry.

Case Studies – In-depth analyses of specific communities, organizations, or social phenomena. Case studies should highlight empirical findings, methodological rigor, and their relevance to broader sociological theory or practice.
