Akademie für Soziologie

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Akademie für Soziologie (German for Academy for Sociology) is a scientific organization of social scientists that do empirical research in Germany. A call for the new organization was published in April 2017 with 112 signatories.[1] The academy was founded in Mannheim in July of the same year. Its president is Thomas Hinz.

German sociologists were divided about whether a new organization was needed or divisive.[2][3]

The academy is recognized by the German Research Foundation as one of the two societies for the empirical social sciences.[4]
