Résumé

After a historical reminder of the main motivations that led to the creation of Recherches sociographiques, we present the results of a quantitative analysis of the themes and bibliographies of the journal’s articles as well as of the institutions and disciplines in which the authors were engaged. In so doing, we identify the research trends propagated by this journal since its founding in 1960. The evolution of the journal’s content shows that Quebec sociography, judging from the topics discussed, can be credited with having closely observed the social transformations of Quebec as well as those of the discipline in general.
