Fast changes in Romanian higher education and research shaped the post-communist landscape of practicing academic sociology. The same applies to all other social sciences, which were also forbidden to exist at university level during the communist dictatorship.
This section invites presentations related to the state of social sciences in contemporary world, with a focus on Romania, but also aiming to include insights from any other country, as well as cross-country comparisons.
In a reflexive effort, SSR initiated in 2021 a websurvey among Romanian sociologists, anthropologists, social workers, and political scientists that are active in the academia. We encourage presenters to include the resulting database in their analyses. Data is available starting mid-April 2022 on the SSR website. Nevertheless, the section welcomes presentations based on any other data and/or methodological approach, with the explicit objective to provide a forum where the current state of social sciences can be subject to debate.
