Call for Papers for the conference

In an increasingly rapidly changing world, sociological knowledge—in its theoretical, epistemological, and methodological consistency—is indispensable for observing and understanding the rapidly changing reality in which we are immersed. For this reason, the conference is open to recent graduates, PhD students, and recent postdocs in social sciences, as well as professionals and third sector workers . The official language is Italian. Participation is required by submitting a long abstract by September 30, 2021.
