Sociology and Cultural Studies

The Sociology and Cultural Studies category provides a scholarly space for examining the intricate patterns of human social behavior, institutional structures, and cultural expressions. It welcomes original research that explores the intersections of tradition and modernity, social stratification, community dynamics, and the evolving nature of everyday life. This section invites critical analyses of cultural practices, media and digital culture (including the impact of technology on youth and community engagement), folklore, identity, and the daily lives of marginalized or rural populations, particularly in the Indian and regional context. Authors are encouraged to submit papers that offer deep sociological insights into how communities navigate socio-cultural transformations, manage heritage, and respond to contemporary social changes, ultimately fostering a richer understanding of the diverse and dynamic forces that shape human societies.
