Zusammenfassung
This chapter provides an overview of sociological studies and sociological practice in Spain. Our aim is to help and make information available to students, graduates and practitioners that are interested in coming to Spain for purposes of study, training, research internships, and career development in different sectors of the labor market.
Some important facts that sociologists wishing to come to Spain should take into account is that our history and context are important issues for both studying and working. Spain offers a vibrant and diverse arena for learning and practicing sociology, although the peculiarities of the universities and the labor market have important implications. Sociology is a very young official degree when compared to other European countries.
