National Associations

National Associations (Regular Members)

Collective members of the ISA consist of national associations of sociology (regular members), and research institutions and universities or their departments, as well as other associations of sociologists (affiliated members). Constituting the Council of National Associations (CNA), collective members actively promote regional and cross-country cooperation and highlight the activities of each collective member. The CNA aims to create a community to consult and cooperate with on common interests including collective networks on approaches, emphases, and cultures of doing sociology. National associations and affiliated members all over the world contribute to the diversity of global voices in ISA’s deliberations and vision.
