Summary/Abstract: This paper examines the process of institutionalization of a new discipline. Sociology of the body was established at the beginning of the 1990s, and the process coincided with major changes within sociology. The model of strategic institutionalization of modern sciences was applied in the paper. Тhere are several aspects of the process in question: setting the boundaries of sociology of the body, defining the authors' position towards forerunners, and finally, the authors' position on contemporary perspectives on body.
