Sociology of Religion《宗教社会学》(季刊). Sociology of Religion,the official journal of the Association for the Sociology of Religion,is published quarterly for the purpose of advancing scholarship in the sociological study of religion. The journal publishes original (not previously published) work of exceptional quality and interest without regard to substantive focus,theoretical orientation,or methodological approach. Although theoretically ambitious,empirically grounded articles are the core of what we publish,we also welcome agenda setting essays,comments on previously published works,critical reflections on the research act,and interventions into substantive areas or theoretical debates intended to push the field ahead.
