Formally registered as a not-for-profit civic association, the ISS set its goals to operate (a) in the public sphere, to convene sociologists from a variety of institutions and viewpoints with a commitment to equality, democracy, and an environment that is free of prejudice or harassment; (b) in the scientific sphere, to protect the academic freedom of all sociologists with a commitment to scientific standards and professional ethics; and (c) in the professional sphere, to protect and advance the professional interests and work conditions of sociologists.
