Building on the established research on the sociology of emotion and affect, this book provides an introduction to the sociology of happiness with a distinct focus on the analysis of macro level social processes. Addressing the key debates, themes, and perspectives in happiness research with a uniquely sociological perspective, it provides a theoretical analysis of modernity that highlights the normative and everyday aspects of happiness. While happiness research is dominated by empirical studies in the areas of economics and psychology, contributions from sociologists in emotions research typically depend upon microsociology/interaction theory. This volume, in contrast, relates shifts in the emotional experiences of individuals to larger social trends and the shifting character of modernity, showing how socially mediated experiences of citizenship, community, and autonomy play an important role in the individual?s understanding of happiness and contentment.
