Sociology Between the Gaps: Forgotten and Neglected Topics

ISSN 2472-1255

INQUIRIES and SUBMISSIONS TO VOLUME TEN WILL BE ACCEPTED beginning on September 1, 2024!

A Letter to Faculty Mentors, Authors, and Readers of SBG from Josephine A. Ruggiero, Editor in Chief

Volume 10 of Sociology Between the Gaps (SBG) introduces a new cover to highlight 10 years of continuous publication. I started SBG in the summer of 2014, as my principal retirement project. My objective in doing so was to maintain my involvement in teaching sociology and offering a forum to exchange ideas, but to do this in an innovative way. SBG is offered free of charge both to prospective authors and readers. Since its first volume, SBG has continued to draw high-quality submissions from students and professionals both in the U.S. and from other countries.

SBG’s readership has also grown over the last nine years, making it a truly global journal. Volume nine had the largest number of submissions (N = 14) published in a single volume thus far. Between the summer of 2014 and June 30, 2024, SBG published more than 100 pieces: 52 articles, 17 Point of View essays, 10 Book Reviews, eight Film Reviews, and introduced three new categories of topics: Etc. (N = 14; Retrospection (N = 2); and Musings (N = 3).

The success of SBG to date is due, in part, to the dedicated professional sociologists who are members of our Editorial Board, several of whom have served actively on this Board from the beginning. Like me, they are unpaid volunteers who devote their time to make the innovative experiment that is SBG a reality. These colleagues are instrumental to SBG’s success in many ways, including by encouraging student authors to submit their work for publication consideration, by reviewing submissions in their areas of expertise, and by writing thought-provoking submissions themselves.

On behalf of all those involved in SBG, I am very pleased that this journal has met my original objective of becoming an innovative forum through which diverse student and professional voices can be heard on a range of neglected or forgotten sociological topics and issues. A request to Faculty mentors/advisors: Please encourage your students to send their best work to the current, or to a future, volume of Sociology Between the Gaps.


Thank you for your support.


Sociology between the Gaps: Forgotten and Neglected Topics (SBG) is an innovative, peer-reviewed, open-access, cross-disciplinary, independent online journal published in English. This journal publishes high quality submissions that fall into sociological work that may be viewed by some as outside mainstream sociological topics; hence the full journal title: Sociology between the Gaps: Forgotten and Neglected Topics. SBG also aims to reflect the intersections of social class, race, gender, age and cross-disciplinary views by encouraging authors to submit work on topics that cross disciplinary boundaries and/or areas of specialization but effectively link disciplines to provide a multi-disciplinary perspective on the topics and issues addressed.

This not-for-profit journal is published electronically in collaboration with Digital Projects & Metadata at Providence College's Phillips Memorial Library + Commons. The Editor-In-Chief is grateful to the library staff that help make this publication possible.

The Editorial Board of SBG seeks original empirical, theoretical, applied, and critical review papers that add to the existing body of knowledge in sociology. The Editorial Board is also interested in publishing point of view essays, book and film reviews, and other entries that fit with the mission of SBG. Papers on themes addressed in Volumes 1 (adoption in international perspective), 2 (creating livable communities in diverse societies, and 3 (cultural lag in post-modern society) are also encouraged.

Final drafts of accepted submissions will be published on an on-going basis. Depending on the number of publishable submissions she receives by the submission deadline, the Editor-in-Chief may choose to close one volume and open a new one.

Send submissions and inquiries to Dr. Josephine Ruggiero, Editor-in-Chief at: jruggier@providence.edu.

The Assisi Institute Journal

The Assisi Institute Journal provides a forum for interdisciplinary investigation into the presence and working of psyche in matter, and the influence of archetypal patterns and dynamics in the personal and collective domains of culture and life. Accordingly, the Journal seeks to advance analysis of the “psychic fields of experience” present in clinical and therapeutic settings, organizations (government, business, leadership, scientific, and cultural), artistic, spiritual, and religious practices, and the natural and/or built environment. Of particular importance is the contribution toward a more profound understanding of archetypal patterns as they influence both the proliferation of violence in the world and the establishment of justice and peace in human relations in both local and international communities.
