Owen Abbott
Owen Abbott is a Leverhulme early career fellow in sociology with Cardiff University. His current project provides an empirical study of the role of forgiveness in personal relationships, an area of research that has so far gone largely untouched by sociologists. The project focuses on the ways in which forgiveness becomes significant to, and is practiced within, various types of personal relationships, including friendships, family, and romantic relationships.
