   Objectives

The aim of IJWOE is to act as a focal point for the dissemination of theoretical and empirical developments in the area of emotion, embodiment and related organisational and socio-cultural phenomena. It seeks contributions from diverse disciplinary fields including management and organisational analysis, gender studies, sociology, psychology, political economy, and more practitioner-orientated traditions such as human resource management and occupational health amongst others. It welcomes research from a range of methodological perspectives and aims to communicate with both academics and practitioners in the field. As an international journal, it also aims to explore how emotional and embodied processes are experienced, managed, controlled and resisted across a range of national and cultural contexts.

   Readership

IJWOE will be of interest to academics, researchers, practitioners and policy makers and all those with an interest in the emotional, embodied, aesthetic and political dimensions of work, organisation and society.

   Contents

IJWOE includes original academic papers and book reviews. There will be occasional special reviews devoted to important topics and themes in the area as well as guest editions. Shorter research notes and dialogue pieces are also welcomed.

   Subject Coverage

IJWOE includes papers that contribute to our understanding of the processes and practices of the emotional, embodied and aesthetic dimensions of work and organisation. The coverage of IJWOE includes but is not limited to the following areas:

• Emotional labour and emotion work
• Emotional intelligence
• Emotion and social organisation
• The emotional and embodied nature of research
• Play and pleasure at work and beyond
• Organisational corporeality
• Body work
• Aesthetic labour

As well as these substantive areas, the journal particularly welcomes submissions that explore, in a critical fashion and in relation to emotion and embodiment, topics including:

• The political economy of emotions at work and society at large
• The changing nature of work and organisation
• Commodification and exploitation
• Gender and sexuality
• Control and resistance
• Performativity
• Organisational, cultural and economic inequality
