Description

A Sociology of Awkwardness explores the often-overlooked phenomenon of social interactions that fail, stumble, or go awry. Published by Routledge as part of their Advances in Sociology series, this book examines awkwardness not as a personal failing but as a sociological concept worthy of serious academic study. The work investigates how and why social encounters break down, what happens when communication misfires, and what these moments reveal about the underlying structures of human interaction. By treating awkwardness as a legitimate subject of sociological enquiry, the book challenges readers to reconsider everyday social discomfort and embarrassment as windows into broader social dynamics, norms, and expectations. It contributes to contemporary sociology by giving scholarly attention to experiences that are universally relatable yet rarely analysed with academic rigour.

Key Features

Routledge Advances in Sociology series offering peer-reviewed scholarship on contemporary sociological topics and emerging research directions.

Provides a sociological framework for understanding awkwardness as a social phenomenon rather than treating it as purely personal or psychological.

Examines the mechanisms and patterns of failed social interactions across different social contexts and settings.

Contributes to understanding of social norms, expectations, and the unwritten rules that govern everyday human behaviour.

Academic text suitable for sociology students, researchers, and scholars interested in qualitative analysis of social life.
