Special 60th Anniversary issue
The BJS Shaping Sociology over 60 Years
The BJS turns 60 this year. To makr this occasion the Editors have chosen two articles from each of the Journal's six decades that, in their view, have had a significant and enduring impact on sociology. Each of the articles is accompanied by contemporary commentary that critically assesses its legacy. While the articles chosen represent just a fraction of the many path-breaking contributions published in the BJS over the years, it is our hope that they will serve to amply demonstrate the Journal's central and longstanding role in fostering the sociological imagination.
