Sociologica Curated

Welcome to Sociologica Curated, our new publishing initiative. In this ebook format we have created thematic collections of articles published in Sociologica. The ebook can be read in sequential mode, to reconstruct a debate; or it can be consulted to identify individual articles, which can be accessed directly by clicking their title in the table of contents.

We hope this ebook format will be useful as learning materials in classes or as a support for students and researchers doing literature review on a topic. Be sure to check this page regularly because we will be publishing new ebooks periodically. Enjoy the reading!
