We would like to inquire whether you would be interested in submitting an article for consideration in this special issue.
Sociology by Turkish scholars does not have a strong international presence, especially among English speaking scholars. The International Journal of Sociology is an English language, peer reviewed journal that appears in universities around the world. This special issue of the International Journal of Sociology would draw together in a single volume articles that highlight the best in sociology of Turkey.
In that issue of International Journal of Sociology, we aim to bring together articles which are based on ethno-class theme.
