About the Journal

Sociologie du travail is one of the oldest journals of sociology in France. It has been published continuously since 1959. Michel Crozier, Jean-Daniel Reynaud, Alain Touraine and Jean-René Tréanton founded it, under the patronage of Georges Friedmann and Jean Stoetzel. It is published with the support of CNRS.

Sociologie du travail has accompanied the development of the socioogical researchs on work and the emergence of a major sociological field. However, it is not a specialized journal, because the boundaries of work have been shifted (work is not just industrial, handicraft, administrative, tertial, manual, it is also domestic, activist, volunteer, amateur, free, informal, artistic, creative, athletic, political, etc.), and because work can not be isolated from broader questions concerning the social, economic, political, institutional, cultural changes.

Sociologie du travail is attached to diffuse the plurality of sociology, at national but also European and international level. It does not favor any theoretical or methodological orientation, but welcomes the work that fit in the debates of their field and are based on a solid empirical foundation.
