Editorial: What we promised, and what we delivered As we write our final editorial for European Societies, we return to the spirit of our first editorial (Präg, Ersanilli and Gugushvili, 2022) and to the question that guided our tenure: did we deliver...

The flagship journal of the European Sociological Association, European Societies, makes published articles free for everyone & does not charge authors a publication fee.

Authors of quantitative work are required to openly share data & code.

No @asanews.bsky.social journal shares all these traits.

We find that religious markers (esp. beards) can reduce perceived trustworthiness in Turkey.

Still a couple of days before the deadline to slot in an application👇🏼

The Women’s Forum will meet on July 1st in the afternoon and will host flash talks for junior scholars as well as a panel on women in academia. We hope to see you there!

My quick reading suggests that the piece is less about defining alternative forms of causality but more about addressing a specific polemic on description versus causality in sociology (hence not much scope in the piece for ignoring ”causality revolution”, if anything he seems to embrace it)
