Abstract

This article presents information on the periodical "Sociology of Education." The journal published its first volume in the academic year 1963-64. Of the authors published in the journal, fourteen were sociologists, two were economists, two were political scientists, two were psychologists, one was an anthropologist, one was a historian and one was an educator. There were seventeen U.S. contributors and six manuscripts came from abroad. These figures indicate that progress has been made toward establishing a journal which is interdisciplinary and international, as intended. Much remains to be done, however, to expand the audience in the same directions. Consideration by the Publications Committee and the Council of whether some promotional efforts of a special type are not required to recruit a readership from outside the discipline of Sociology and outside the U.S. is appreciated. "Sociology of Education," does not carry a regular book review department. Four essay reviews, each focused on a group of related books, have been commissioned for next year.
