On the eve of the anniversary of the journal, issues of studying labor and labor relations in our country are discussed, including their coverage in the journal. Specialists in the field of labor sociology give varying assessments not only of the previous period of the discipline’s development, but also evaluate its prospects, discussing the undeservedly forgotten names of predecessors and their ideas. The peculiarity of the national sociology of labor development is noted, which, despite the lackibg independent theories as well as ideas ahead of practice, over the past fifty years has always adequately responded to the challenges and demands of its time, fulfilling social orders. Methodological questions are raised about the difficulties of studying social and labor relations, lack of conceptual elaboration of the conceptual apparatus, and the measurements difficulties in the labor sphere are discussed. Important aspects of prospective research in this direction are discussed.
