As we enter the third decade of the 21st century, the field of sociology plays a more crucial role in understanding the contemporary world than ever before. Analyzing the role of sociology and human behavior in areas as diverse as medical sociology, gender and experience, migration and society, race and ethnicity, and the work sphere is crucial in grasping and understanding the evolution of humanity in a societal world.
To this end, Frontiers in Sociology is organizing a series of Research Topics to highlight the latest advancements in the field. This editorial initiative, led by Prof. John Offer and Prof. Scott Schaffer, Specialty Chief Editors of the Sociological Theory section, is focused on new insights, novel developments, current challenges, recent advances, and future perspectives in the field of sociological theory.
The Research Topic solicits brief, forward-looking contributions from editorial board members that either describe the state of the art or highlight the changes needed to move the field forward. Authors are encouraged to identify the greatest challenges in the sub-disciplines, and how to address those challenges.
The goal of this special edition Research Topic is to shed light on the progress made in the past decade in the sociological theory field and on its future challenges to provide a thorough overview of the state of the art of the sociological theory field. This article collection will inspire, inform, and provide direction and guidance to researchers in the field.
