About Journal

Sociologie Românească (Romanian Sociology Review) is an open-access, double blind peer-reviewed scientific journal, edited by Research Institute for Quality of Life, Romanian Academy and Romanian Sociological Association. SR welcomes original research papers with innovative methods, theoretical and conceptual research papers, case studies, book reviews and conference reviews. We encourage studies with different methodologies and theoretical approaches that could add value to already established normative ways of doing research, but also approaches that give space to alternative methodologies and critical theories including social change, social development, social history, social policy, demography, gender studies, political issues, social inequalities, education, organization & labour studies, criminology and migration studies. We are particularly interested in contributions focused on Eastern and Central Europe or that could sustain collaborations between scholars across borders and disciplines. Articles that include Romania in their analyses are particularly welcomed, however we are committed to expand this focus.

Abstract

In 2025, we commemorate the centennial of the first sociological field research campaign conducted in Greater Romania in 1925 by Dimitrie Gusti’s Sociological School in the village of Goicea Mare, Dolj County, Oltenia Province. The centenary of this remarkable milestone in the history of Romanian sociology calls for a special commemorative issue of Sociologie Românească, the journal founded by Dimitrie Gusti in 1936. The current issue includes eight original contributions emphasising the main achievements of Romanian sociology, particularly from the perspective of field research. This thematic issue pays tribute to Romanian sociology and to those who contributed to its foundation, continuation, and revival during the interwar, communist, and post-communist periods.
