Biography
I am currently Emeritus Professor of SocialIdentity in the Division of Sociology and Criminology at the University ofBradford. My work is centrally concerned with the formation of human identitywithin social relations, beginning with my first book Social Selves (1991; 2nd ed. 2008). Over the years myinterest in the societal contexts in which we become particular social beings, hasbroadened to include forms of human embodiment (Bodies of Thought, 1999) and the relational formation of emotions (Emotions and Social Relations, 2014).My recent work has extended the relational approach to emotions into criticalconsiderations of the influence of neuroscience on emotion theory, of ideasabout emotion regulation, and the nature of alienation in contemporarycapitalism. I have also written about reconceptualising agency through theperspective of relational sociology.Research
The social formation of identity. Social activity and human embodiment. The social and relational constitution of emotions, including the political dimension of emotions. Agency as a relational phenomenon.
