arsoc-writing-style

separate

Use when revising an Annual Review of Sociology (ARSoc) review for the ARSoc voice — authoritative, accessible to sociologists outside the subfield, signposted, with a strong opening and a forward-looking research-agenda close, and a survey-style abstract. Polishes prose and structure; it does not design the framework (arsoc-organizing-framework) or audit balance (arsoc-comprehensiveness-and-balance).

When to use

• revising an ARSoc review
• polishing prose and structure
• improving the review opening arc
• creating a forward-looking research-agenda close
• writing a survey-style abstract
• ensuring accessibility to sociologists outside the subfield

When not to use

• designing the framework
• auditing balance
• comprehensiveness and balance audits
