About the Journal

Sociologus – Journal for Social Anthropology is dedicated to ethnographically grounded social analysis and theory building. It places social and cultural processes at the center of its work and seeks to foster inquiry, open up new perspectives, and brings pressing issues into focus. Its aim is to demonstrate the contemporary relevance of anthropology. Sociologus is open in its thematic, regional, and disciplinary scope.

The journal is internationally peer-reviewed, available both online and in print, and indexed in the major academic databases. Its review process is designed to be constructive, supportive, and engaged. Founded in 1925, Sociologus is today one of the leading journals of social and cultural anthropology in the German-speaking academic world.
