The Society for Socialist Studies/Societe D'Études Socialistes (SSS) was formed in 1967 to "facilitate and encourage research and analysis with an emphasis on socialist, feminist, anti-racist and ecological points of view." [1] The Society is not affiliated with any particular political organization.
Since 2005, the Society has published a peer-reviewed academic journal, Socialist Studies (2005).
The Society is a member of the Canadian Federation for the Humanities and Social Sciences (CFHSS)[2] and meets annually as part of the Congress of the Humanities and Social Sciences, the largest annual multidisciplinary academic gathering in Canada. Its 2015 conference will be held from 2-5 June in Ottawa.
