WiSe 22/23: Political Emotions
Philipp Wunderlich
Kommentar
Struggles over power, resources and agency are a core interest of a political sociology of emotions. They are linked to the central sociological question “what holds society together?” and may even be seen as constitutive aspects of modern societies. Affect and emotion are implicated in social conflicts in a multitude of ways. Mobilization and solidarity of political groups and social movements rest heavily on the emergence or elicitation of collective and reciprocal emotions. Cognitive prejudice against social ”others” always has an affective connotation and collective action against outgroup members is often driven by intergroup emotion. Aim of this course is to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of the ways in which affective phenomena yield explanations for dynamics of social conflict and political polarization on the one hand and the formation of cohesive social collectives on the other hand. Thus, we aim to address the question posed by Sara Ahmed (2004) ”How do emotions work to align some subjects with some others and against other others?“ (p.117) in a multitude of ways. Schließen
