Call for Submissions to the Clinical Sociology Review

The Clinical Sociology Review (CSR) was the official journal of the Clinical Sociology Association.  It first was published in 1982 and the final issue, Volume 16, was published in 1998.  The 16 volumes are all available on Wayne State University’s website at https://digitalcommons.wayne.edu/csr/. The new CSR is  published by UJ Press and is available at https://journals.uj.ac.za/index.php/csr          

   The CSR has been relaunched, beginning with Volume 17, as an open-access journal by the Department of Sociology at the University of Johannesburg and the Clinical Sociology division (RC46) of the International Sociological Association.  Collaborating organizations in this effort are the Association for Applied and Clinical Sociology (United States), Nodo Sur- América Latina – RISC (Uruguay), Réseau International de Sociologie Clinique - RISC (Paris, France), Sociologie clinique (CR19) of the Association Internationale des Sociologues de Langue Franҫaise (AISLF) and Sociologie clinique (RT16) of the Association Française de Sociologie (AFS).

     The new Clinical Sociology Review is a peer-reviewed and open-access journal that publishes contributions in English, French and Spanish.  The author submits in one of the three languages and translation of a contribution in the other two languages will be available on the website. There is no fee for submission or publication. Submissions are accepted throughout the year. There is no specific deadline for submissions.

     Contributions are welcome to the journal’s three sections: The History of Clinical Sociology, Articles and Resources. The History section contains articles about the history of the field as well as introductory pieces to historic publications by clinical sociologists. The Articles section contains short and long submissions such as research articles; essays; discussions of teaching or training; and discussions of intervention work. The Resources section can include many kinds of submissions. It could, for instance, provide reviews of one or more films or books as well as invited pieces about clinical sociology membership organizations, programs or services (such as program accreditation or individual certification).
