Description
Summary:This article traces central elements in the three decade history of the American Catholic Sociological Society in order to determine the specific intentions of its creators and subsequent members as well as examining both those factors that underpinned the creation of the society and those that culminated in the redefinition of the organization's raison d'être in the late 1960s. Of particular interest is the issue of whether or not the purpose of the Society was to create a Catholic sociology.
