Mailing list

The Academy of Sociology maintains a moderated mailing list (as@listserv.dfn.de; homepage: https://www.listserv.dfn.de/sympa/info/as) where the following information can be distributed:

  • Calls (conference contributions, conferences, etc.)
  • Information on job vacancies
  • Latest news and reports

The mailing list is open to members and non-members of the Academy. It currently has around 1000 subscribers. You can subscribe to it and send messages (in English or German).

You can leave the main body of your message empty. Next, you will receive a confirmation email to which you have to reply. This prevents you being registered without your knowledge and consent.
