Distinktion: Scandinavian Journal of Social Theory

Distinktion: Scandinavian Journal of Social Theory is a peer-reviewed journal that publishes papers, which make a substantial contribution to contemporary social theory. The journal particularly investigates the interface between social and political theory, often explored in thematic issues. Distinktion invites articles from sociology, political science, cultural and legal studies, anthropology, and philosophy that provide original perspectives on the social. Launched in 2000 at the Political Science Department at Aarhus University and presently based in a Scandinavian context, Distinktion creates a space for theoretical contestation that includes both continental and Anglo-American traditions. The journal features theory articles as well as more empirical contributions, but empirical papers should outline implications for social theory. Distinktion publishes standard articles as well as review essays.

Distinktion is published in April, August, and December. Manuscripts are welcomed by the Editors at distinktion@ps.au.dk. Articles appearing in Distinktion are abstracted and indexed in Sociological Abstracts, Worldwide Political Science Abstracts, and EBSCO SocIndex. The journal is published with financial support from the Nordic Board for Periodicals in the Humanities and the Social Sciences (NOP-HS).

New main academic area

### UNIT NAME ### is part of Business and Social Sciences, which is accredited by EQUIS (European Quality Improvement System).

What does Business and Social Sciences comprise?

As part of the academic development process at Aarhus University, the Aarhus School of Business (ASB) and the Faculty of Social Sciences (SAM) merged to become the new main academic area called Business and Social Sciences.

You can still go to www.asb.dk/en (ASB) and samfundsvidenskab.au.dk/en (SAM), but these websites will be closing soon.

Here you can find Business and Social Sciences

New times at au.dk/en

The university’s website is being redesigned. The design and content will therefore change, and you may experience for a while that old and new sections are mixed together, and that the content is not in its usual place.

We hope that the new website will make up for any inconvenience, and that you will enjoy greater coherence throughout and find the website simpler to use.

Why are we making a mess?

In the time ahead, you will notice a mixture of old and new designs in the pages on the website.

In spring 2011, Aarhus University’s nine main academic areas were reduced to four, and the fifty-five departments became twenty-six. This was to unify the organisation and to strengthen the university’s interdisciplinary approach. We are now following suit by restructuring the entire website to ensure more coherence in the content and design.

Such an exercise takes time – and we hope you will bear with us!

Take a short cut

Under the HOT KEY at the top right, you can find links to the most frequently used content on the website, as well as the two new universes for staff and students.

Where can I find it?
