6 Revue sex%gique / Sex%gica/ Review
Our third objective is to encourage a critical sense in analyzing
sexual phenomena. AU scientific data is the result of our social
heritage which should be controlled, and not ignored. The history of
sexology teaches us that sexological theories and knowledge are
instituted products that are largely dependent on the sociocultural
circumstances in which they ascribe themselves. It is absolutely
necessary to situate the acquisition of sexological knowledge in
relation to scientific movements and the data in reference to their
cultural environment. This will allow for a better understanding of
how sexology evolves in our society.
In conclusion, we hope that the Sexological Review will be an
effective tool for many years to come. Its longevity will greatly depend
on the quality of its scientific content and of its management. To
insure its success, we therefore invite aIl researchers and practitioners
in the various scientific disciplines who share a concern in meeting
the general objectives of this periodical to submit their original
manuscripts. We also rely on the collaboration of many people who
will assume tasks that are inseparable from the production of such a
journal: financial management, the formulation of definitions and
orientations, the evaluation of manuscripts and book-reviewing, and
the preparation, printing and distribution of each issue. We wish to
thank these individu aIs for joining our te am and helping to create
this periodical.
