Norwegian Journal of Sociology
Academic journal
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Norwegian Journal of Sociology (Norwegian: Norsk sosiologisk tidsskrift) is a Norwegian, peer-reviewed academic journal within the field of sociology. It is published by Universitetsforlaget on behalf of all the institutes of sociology at Norway's universities, with support from the Research Council of Norway. The journal is the result of the 2016 merger of the journals, Sosiologi i dag ("Sociology Today"), established in 1971, and Sosiologisk tidsskrift ("Journal of Sociology"), established in 1993, which were both among the then three leading social science journals in Norway;[1][2] the journal also obtained its present title at the time of the merger.[3] The journal's joint editors-in-chief are Uzair Ahmed, Hedda Haakestad, Aksel Tjora and Gunhild Tøndel. Previous editors are Mette I. Snertingdal, Cecilie Basberg Neumann, Hans Erik Næss, Kari Stefansen, May-Len Skilbrei and Arve Hjelseth.[4]
