Meet Us at the BSA Annual Conference 2026, 8–10 April 2026, Manchester, UK


MDPI will be attending the BSA Annual Conference 2026 from 8 to 10 April 2026 in Manchester, UK. We welcome researchers from diverse backgrounds to visit our booth and share their latest ideas with us. 

Organised by the British Sociological Association, the BSA Annual Conference 2026 will take place at the University of Manchester. Held on the eve of the Association’s 75th anniversary, this year’s conference offers a moment to think sociologically with time: how we periodize change, how we inherit and rework ideas, and how our histories shape the contours of our present. 

The approach of BSA’s 75th year welcomes reflexive engagement with the discipline itself—its trajectories, tensions, boundaries, and blind spots. What have been sociology's dominant frames, and who has been left out of the telling? How has the discipline responded to shifts in political life, knowledge production, and the university, and where might it go next? The Annual Conference is where we test early thoughts, return to unfinished ones, and give form to ideas that cannot quite sit still. It is an intellectual common area where scholars from every corner of the discipline can meet to not only speak but also to listen.  

The following MDPI journals will be represented:
