James’s doctoral research interests include workplace misbehaviour. More specifically he is looking at how employees both within and outwith the workplace overtly and covertly resist management practices, how employees informally cope with the demands of mundane work, the part informal workplace practices play in workplace relations, and how non-work identities (such as gender, age, etc.) conflict with work-related identities. More recently, he has begun to research new forms of web-based communication technologies as a medium for worker voice and an outlet for work-related experiences and imagery. See his weblog for more details.

James is a member of the British Universities Industrial Relations Association (BUIRA), British Sociological Association, and East of Scotland CIPD Knowledge into Practice group
