ESA Membership Form

Membership of the European Sociological Association is open to the broad categories of all scholars who actively contribute to the scientific development of sociological knowledge in or on Europe. There are three kinds of members: regular, institutional and student.

Regular membership is open to scholars who either:
  • carry out sociological research
  • teach sociology
  • have sociological jobs
  • are members of European national sociological associations
  • have academic degrees and training in sociology
Starting in 1999, membership of the ESA is more complete than ever: all members of the ESA receive not only the European Sociologist Newsletter, but also, if they are regular members, online copies of our journal European Societies, published by Routledge. And all ESA members pay significantly reduced fees when they register at our biennial conferences! Registration to ESA lasts two calendar years, with a tolerance of two months: this means that, for example, if your register on November 1st, 2013 the registration will cover 2014 and 2015. Members registering from November onwards will be in good standing with the Association at the moment of the Conference, hence able to register to the Conference at the ESA rates.

To become a member of the ESA, please complete this form. After clicking 'submit', it will be sent to the ESA-secretariat. After your payment has been received, you will be registered as a member.

In order to get your ID number faster, please send your bank order by fax to our secretariat +33 1 40 25 11 03. You can also send it by email to esa@pouchet.cnrs.fr.
