Preferred term

Arlie Hochschild  

Definition

  • Arlie Hochschild's (1940–) work in The Managed Heart has built the foundation for an extensive field in the sociology of work. Her argument centers on capturing the transmutation of feelings, or how the management of emotions in private life has been transformed into a commodity to be bought and sold in a service-based, post-industrial society.
