The XIII Portuguese Congress of Sociology will be held from July 8 to 11, 2025, in S. Miguel, Azores.
The theme of the 13th Congress, “Democracies on Trial: Risks and Uncertainties”, is particularly relevant in the contemporary socio-political context. Democracies around the world are facing unprecedented challenges, from the rise of populism and conservative movements and the increase in social inequalities and violence, to cyber threats and the climate crisis. This congress aims to explore these and other relevant issues through a sociological lens, bringing together researchers, academics and practitioners to discuss and debate the threats and opportunities facing contemporary democracies.
Abstracts can be submitted until October 14, 2024. You can find out more about the event here: https://aps.pt/xiii-congresso-portugues-de-sociologia/
