Welcome
The 2008 TASA conference will provide a forum for re-imagining the contribution of sociology in engaging with major emerging social issues in a period of rapid global transformation. Contemporary societal transformations require innovative responses from sociology, in terms of the theoretical and methodological tools used, and in exploring creative ways to engage actively with the world. The conference theme is deliberately broad, and we invite papers and abstracts, and proposals for conference innovations, from all who are interested in contributing to the process of re-imagining sociology.
