BAŞKENT UNIVERSITY DEPARTMENT OF SOCIOLOGY BUSOC2023 INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS OF SOCIOLOGY DIFFERENCES AND UNCERTAINTIES
26-28 OCTOBER 2023
ANKARA TURKEY
Each century brings with it brand new uncertainties as much as the centuries before it, and also leads to the confusion of time and borders. In the twenty-first century, we live in, identities, borders, and even concepts are intertwined, and uncertainties increase, especially with the effect of technological transformations and globalization. While our awareness of different identities increases on the axis of the future of the world, sustainability, climate, and environmental issues, we are witnessing an increase in wars, the most brutal aspect of life. Amid these differences and uncertainties, the importance of sociology is gradually increasing. However, as the issues that sociology 'concerns' grows, its methodological and theoretical uncertainties also increase, and it becomes more difficult than ever to understand and explain the ever-changing and transforming world.
The ?International Congress of Sociology?, which will be hosted by Başkent University Faculty of Science and Letters Department of Sociology, sets out to discuss all these differences and uncertainties. BUSOC2023 will witness two important dates in this journey: the centennial of the proclamation of the Republic of Turkey and the tenth anniversary of the establishment of the Başkent University Department of Sociology. While designing BUSOC2023 to bring these two anniversaries together, we aim to both discuss the transformations in the 21st century and to shed light on the future while understanding the century that we have left behind in our Republic, and we invite all academics and researchers doing research in the relevant fields to submit their research to the ?International Congress of Sociology?.
