16th INAS Conference Information

The 2024 Annual Meeting of the International Network of Analytical Sociologists will take place May 30–31 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.

The deadline for submission is February 16, 2024. The organizers will notify the authors of the decisions by mid-March. For more information, please visit the conference website.
