Visa disseminar estudos que contenham análise empíricas e teóricas inovadoras pertinentes para o debate acadêmico internacional. Busca promover diálogos transnacionais e dará preferência a textos resultantes de investigação empírica sobre temas e questões fundamentais da sociologia bem como a contribuições ao debate atual sobre a teoria social.

Dossiê Capitalismo de Plataforma

This dossier aims to gather studies focused on Latin American countries that make it possible to know the extent and diffusion of the market for digital work platforms; the types of work that are being disseminated by such platforms; the justifications presented socially by workers who enter such activities; the working conditions and income levels encountered by these workers and forms of subordination to platform-companies; the forms of action and organization that have been undertaken with a view to inaugurating a cycle of conquering rights.

Dossiê Imagens na Era Digital

By proposing dialogues between the fields of Digital Sociology and the Sociology of Images, this dossier will bring together essays and articles from the Social Sciences that address images in digital media as objects of investigation constituent of the reality as we know and experience it, encompassing: networks of meanings that their different modalities mobilize; how they express power relations; the forms of valuation and legitimation that they imply, as well as the conflicts that are inherent to them in the social construction of reality.

Dossiê Circulação intelectual entre França e Brasil

The objective of this dossier is to bring together empirical research that deals with intellectual circulation between France and Brazil in the social and human sciences. The aim is, through specific case studies, to explore the dynamics of circulation, the asymmetries of power and the ways such transits are given new meanings in their respective national contexts.

Dossier Metamorphoses and Transformations of Sociology

In this dossier, we will accept articles that address these issues based on:

1. a) specific themes that are the objects of theoretical and conceptual controversies, for example, the understanding of the canon or classics of sociology, the diagnoses of crisis or fragmentation of the discipline; the problems concerning the place of criticism and normativity in sociological research.
2. b) important concepts for this debate, such as crisis, critique, society, solidarity, axiological neutrality, etc;
3. c) evaluation of the contribution of a theory, a theoretical movement, a specific author or author in a comparative perspective;
4. d) themes, authors and contributions from peripheral or semi-peripheral regional contexts.

Dosssiê Precariedades Contemporâneas

The purpose of this dossier is to discuss contemporary precariousness represented by the capitalist transformations of recent decades, which have threatened the forms of social solidarity by exacerbating individualism and the entrepreneurialization of social institutions. Such precariousness is accompanied by technological changes that, although expanding the horizons of human life, also become a threat to human existence by depleting natural resources, the results of which can be seen in global warming and other environmental consequences we are currently experiencing. We intend to debate the general issue of life precariousness, through articles that highlight this process in work, education, health, politics, in short, in all dimensions of social life.

Dossier CRITICALLY UNDERSTANDING THE NEW FORMS OF RIGHT-WING POLITICS

This dossier proposes to address how new forms of right-wing political groups have been organized in different parts of the world. Based on frameworks that deal with concepts such as right and left, authoritarianism, populism and others, we expect authors to present reflections – whether of a theoretical nature or with a more empirical emphasis – that account for how these changes present themselves in multiple contexts. We welcome papers with sociological basis and historical perspectives, with a focus on comparative issues, especially with attention to how these ideas and concepts (as well as the practical ways they connect with each other) have been circulating and gaining relevance among different countries, groups and political systems, whether in the center-periphery relationship or carrying other characteristics or circulation dynamics. The dossier also welcomes papers that deal with the role of online social media in regard to these gatherings and performances, and/or how they are intertwined with rallies, demonstrations and other forms of political events. We are particularly interested in receiving the contributions of Black and Women scholars, as well as papers addressing the main theme of our dossier in the African and/or Asian contexts.
