2018, issue 41, Rainer Diaz-Bone: The Swiss Sociological Association (SSA) was founded in 1955 and has developed since then (Eberle 2005; Eberle/Reichle 2018). The association is led by a board of eleven sociologists, who represent almost every Swiss university plus a representative of the Swiss universities of applied science. Today the society has round about 500 members. It organises a sociology congress every two years and promotes its research committees as well as its publications.
