Social Forces

Social Forces

Edited by Francois Nielson, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill

Social Forces is a renowned journal of social research highlighting sociological inquiry but also exploring realms shared with social psychology, anthropology, political science, history, and economics. Each issue usually includes 11-14 articles, 25-30 book reviews, and 20-30 "take-note" reviews. A survey of the department heads of twenty top graduate programs in sociology ranked Social Forces in the top three among all journals in which they want to see members of their staff publish.

Social Forces is widely circulated in the United States and in more than 95 foreign countries.
