1. The new structure of the Association

The Internationa l Sociological Association introduced a series of radical changes in its constitutional structure at the Seventh World Congress held in Varna in Bulgaria trom 13th to 19th of September 1970. Calls for thoroughgoing changes in the statutes were repeatedly heard at the Sixth Congress held in Evian in France in September 1966. The complaints against the structure raid down in the original statutes adopted at the Constituent Con~ress in 0510 in 1949 centred on three tr. ,mes: First the membership structure: the old statutes allowed individual membership in exceptional cases only and this set limits both to the finances of the Association and to the range of its efforts of communication; Secondly the procedures of nominations and elections : these were not open enough and made it too easy to perpetuate an oligarchy of "insiders»; Thirdly the status of the Research Committees : these had mushroomed since 1959 and established themselves as indispensable agencies for the organlzation of activities between World Congresses, yet had not been recognized in the statutes nor given any representation on the Council or on the Executive Committee. The Executive Committee in 1966 decided to set up a Constitutional Cornmittee to look into these comp!aints and to draft a set of amendments to the statutes. This was composed of Professors Reinhard Bendix, Reuben Hill. René Kónig, Stein Rokkan and Jan Szczepanski. The Committee reported to the President in February 1970 and a set of draft amendments were circulated to all members of the Council well in advance 01 the Seventh World Congress. The draft amendments proposed changes of structure on all the three points: they introduced regular individual membership (Art. III 1. and 4, below), they instituted a Nominating Committee and required at least two candidates for each elective office (Art. VI), and they spelled out in considerab le detail the status, the internal governance and the representation 01 the Research Committees (Art. XI). The Council met in Varna on the 13th of September and again on the 17th to consider the proposed amendments. The provisíons for nominations and elections were accepted without dissent. The proposal to introduce individual membership was opposed by only two or three delegates and was accepted without difficulties. The ori ginal proposal to ensure regular representation of Research Committees on the Councll was rejected by a clear majority but an alternative proposal ensuring representation on the Executive Committee was passed : this alternative called for the establishment of a Research Council 01 the Assocíatíon and the eleetion of four representatives of this body as Associate Members of the Executive.
