However, significant challenges have also emerged, stemming not only from the expansion and diversification of sociologists, but also from the economic crisis, austerity policies, the enlargement of social science specializations, and the pressures in politics and the media to give advantage to business, law and engineering professionals, courses and research. The present paper will be organized in three sections. Firstly, we will analyse the existing courses of sociology in Portugal (at BA, master and PhD level) as well as the regional location, activity sectors and professional positions of those who have graduated in sociology. Secondly, we will discuss the participation of those different profiles in the Associação Portuguesa de Sociologia throughout time and the ongoing efforts to improve such participation. According to Burawoy’s typology, we suggest that, despite some tensions, academic and critical sociologies have been developed and working together in Portugal, but the connection with a large group of applied sociologists has weakened over time. Public sociology may be the missed link to foster a dialogue among sociologists and other sectors of society. Our national association’s current strategy to develop such links will be sketched. Thirdly, we will present a broad overview of the internationalization of Portuguese sociology, through collaboration in projects and networks, especially with Europe and Portuguese-speaking countries like Brazil and Angola.Centro Interdisciplinar de Ciências Sociais (CICS.NOVA - NOVA FCSH)RUNFerro, LígiaTrancoso Vaz Teixeira Lopes, João MiguelRamos, MadalenaLemos Portugal e Melo, Maria BeneditaCerejo, DalilaAzevedo, JoanaPeixoto, PauloAbrantes, PedroAníbal, AlexandraFerreira, Ana2020-08-11T22:21:17Z20172017-01-01T00:00:00Zconference objectinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion1application/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10362/102273engPURE: 4175097info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP)instname:FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiainstacron:RCAAP2024-05-22T17:46:56Zoai:run.unl.pt:10362/102273Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireinfo@rcaap.ptopendoar:https://opendoar.ac.uk/repository/71602025-05-28T17:18:15.750403Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP) - FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiafalse
