Placing failed humor within the broader category of
miscommunication and drawing on a range of conversational data,
this text represents the first comprehensive study of failed humor.
It provides a framework for classifying the types of failure that
can occur, examines the strategies used by both speakers and
hearers to avoid and manage failure, and highlights the crucial
role humor plays in social identity and relationship management.
