The Sociology of Bullying is an essential new collection that presents sociological perspectives on bullying among adolescents, exploring how social forces such as inequality, heteronormativity, militarized capitalism, racism, cancel culture, power, and competition impact it.

Bullying is a complex issue that has been the subject of much research and discussion in recent years. The nature and consequences of bullying have been widely studied, with psychologists playing a significant role in this field. However, there is a growing recognition that bullying is not just an individual problem, but rather a byproduct of social systems, biases, and status hierarchies.
In response to this, a new collection of essays titled "The Sociology of Bullying" has been published. This volume aims to present the leading ideas in sociology about bullying among adolescents, moving beyond an individualistic approach and offering insights into how to address bullying as a byproduct of social systems, biases, and status hierarchies.
Sociologists investigate the impact of social forces on bullying among adolescents, such as inequality, heteronormativity, militarized capitalism, racism, cancel culture, power, and competition. Contributors to the volume explore a wide range of key topics, including how homophobia and gender normativity encourage bullying, how anti-bullying curricula can ultimately lead to more bullying, and how adolescents use bullying against their friends to improve their own social standing.
By advancing sociological perspectives on bullying, this important volume aims to shift the national conversation from one that focuses on villainizing bullies to one that encourages an inward look at the aspects of our culture that foster bullying behavior among children.
The Sociology of Bullying is a valuable resource for researchers, educators, policymakers, and anyone interested in understanding the nature and consequences of bullying. The essays in this collection provide a comprehensive overview of the current state of research on bullying and offer innovative ideas for addressing this issue in the future.
