Abstract
Sociology has received little attention in the UK′s first generation of undergraduate retail degrees. Suggests that in some ways this is a surprising omission and offers some simple thoughts on the links between sociology and retailing. Stresses the importance of shopping as a social activity and offers some outline explanations for the lack of sociological dimensions in existing retail curricula. Discusses the introduction of more explicit sociological dimensions into retail degrees.
