The Culture Section maintains a number of “research networks” — small groups of members that are bound by targeted interests.  These groups function at their own pace: some maintain websites and listservs, some meet regularly at ASA meetings, some sponsor conferences.

If you would like to join a network, contact the network leaders listed below.  If you would like to start a network, please contact Karen A. Cerulo, the Network Coordinator at cerulo@sociology.rutgers.edu .  She will give you the information for this very simple process.

For you convenience, a list of current networks can be found below:
