The Call for Abstracts for the 16th INAS conference is now open.

We are happy to announce the call for abstracts for the 16th INAS conference, to be held on May 30 & May 31, 2024 in Leipzig, Germany.

Research in the analytical sociology tradition uses different modes of inquiry to identify the micro-level mechanisms that underlie macro-level phenomena. We welcome submissions using any method (e.g., quantitative, qualitative, experimental, simulation-based) that allows for the study of social mechanisms and the social dynamics they give rise to. We especially encourage applications that examine, with exciting new methods and data, how social phenomena emerge from large groups of interacting individuals.

Please submit an abstract (up to 500 words) via email to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. The deadline for submission is February 16, 2024.

The organizers will notify the authors of the decisions by mid-March.

The organizers of the 16th INAS conference are Marc Keuschnigg and Heinz Leitgöb. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to send an email to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..
