Resources on Sociology in REECA Studies in UW-Madison Libraries

Istoriia russkoi sotsiologii (History of Russian Sociology) is a wonderful resource for scholars who read Russian and wish to learn about the roots of Sociology in Russia and recent developments in the field. This volume is meant to be a textbook for upper-level undergraduates, and would therefore be a highly accessible introductory text for an outsider to the field. A similar text with a more modern focus which encompasses all of Central and Eastern Europe, is an anthology of articles entitled Eastern Europe in Transformation: The Impact on Sociology. This book explores the influence of social and political structures on Sociology before, during, and after Communism, and addresses the issues facing contemporary Eastern and Central European Sociology.

For Russian readers, a journal of Russian sociological research is available, entitled Sotsiologicheskie issledovaniia (Sociological Research). Recent articles cover such topics as the political and ethno-religious aspects of the Yugoslav conflict, modern barriers to sociological study, and the use of computers in sociological research. A popular journal of Political Sociology is Sotsialno-politicheskii zhurnal (Socio-political Journal). As the name suggests, this publication reports on political issues from a sociological perspective. Articles include "Politika i moral (Politics and Morality)," "Sotsialnaia struktura : statusy i roli (Social Structure: Status and Roles)." A journal which lies on the threshold between Sociology and Economics is Obshchestvo i ekonomika (Society and Economics). The stated goal of the journal is to examine the problems of societal development with special attention paid to economic aspects.
