Biography
Dr Lynne Pettinger researches work and markets, and is particularly interested in ethics, aesthetics and emotion. She joined the University of Warwick in Jan 2014. Prior to that, she was senior lecturer in sociology at the University of Essex, and before that held a post-doctoral fellowship at City University.
Research Interest
Her research explores the intersections of work and markets, using the insights of economic sociology to make sense of forms of work. It explores how market cultures are generated, and how ethics, aesthetics and emotions are worked on in global consumer capitalism. She has developed these themes in projects on sales work, sex work and music work, and these ideas form the basis of Work, Consumption and Capitalism (Palgrave Macmillan, 2015).
