RC46 Clinical Sociology (host committee)

Language: English

This session will showcase the work of clinical sociologists working towards the common good or the interests of all in a given society. In a time of civil unrest, global strain, and human conflict, a discussion of what clinical sociologists are doing to advance society for the greater good of all is warranted. In this session, a variety of research will be presented that cuts across different subdisciplines of sociology that all connect with one another with a shared goal of working for the interests of everyone in hopes of improving the human condition.
