Since its inception, the field of psychology has emphasized the
importance of creating and maintaining social connections. Though
theorists often disagree on how and why people form and maintain
relationships, they agree on the importance of having a few
positive and lasting relationships, and on the seriousness of
social exclusion. The Oxford Handbook of Social Exclusion offers
the most comprehensive body of social exclusion research ever
assembled. Bringing together contributions from leading scholars
from a wide variety of theoretical perspectives, this volume
explores: - why people have a need to belong, why people exclude
others, and how people respond to various forms of social
exclusion. - research on how social exclusion affects people
according to their stage of development, their involvement in
romantic relationships, and within their work relationships. - the
power of social exclusion in shaping a variety of behavioral and
cognitive processes. - research on how to reduce the often negative
consequences of social exclusion. This is an exciting time of
proliferation in social exclusion research, as new findings spark
new questions regarding the causes and consequences of social
exclusion. Both stimulating and foundational, the current research
and theories presented in this handbook represent a fertile area of
study from which future insights can be gained.
