The Sociological Review is a quarterly peer-reviewed academic journal covering sociology published by Wiley-Blackwell. It is one of the three "main sociology journals in Britain", along with the British Journal of Sociology and Sociology, and the oldest British sociology journal.[1]
It covers all branches of the discipline, including anthropology, criminology, philosophy, education, gender, medicine, and organization.

The Sociological Review also publishes a Monograph series that publishes scholarly articles on issues of general sociological interest.
Established in 1908 as a successor of the Papers of the Sociological Society, its founder and first editor-in-chief was Leonard Trelawny Hobhouse. As the first professor of sociology in the United Kingdom, Hobhouse had a central role in establishing sociology as an academic discipline, and The Sociological Review became an important forum in this regard, and generally as a forum of new liberal theory from the early 20th century.[2]
