Emotions in Late Modernity This international collection discusses how the individualised, reflexive, late modern era has changed the way we experience and act on our emotions. Divided into four sections that include studies ranging across multiple conti- nents and centuries, Emotions in Late Modernity does the following: 1 Demonstrates an increased awareness and experience of emotional com- plexity in late modernity by challenging the legal emotional/rational divide; positive/negative concepts of emotional valence; sociological/phil- osophical/psychological divisions around emotion, morality and gender; and traditional understandings of love and loneliness. 2 Reveals tension between collectivised and individualised-privatised emo- tions in investigating ‘emotional sharing’ and individualised responsibility for anger crimes in courtrooms, and the generation of emotional energy and achievement emotions in classrooms. 3 Debates the increasing mediation of emotions by contrasting their histori- cal mediation (through texts and bodies) with contemporary digital media- tion of emotions in classroom teaching, collective mobilisations (e.g. riots) and film and documentary representations. 4 Demonstrates reflexive micro and macro management of emotions, with examinations of the ‘politics of fear’ around asylum seeking and religious subjects, and collective commitment to climate change mitigation. The first collection to investigate the changing nature of emotional experience in contemporary times, Emotions in Late Modernity will appeal to students and researchers interested in fields such as the sociology of emotions, cultural studies, political science and psychology.

Routledge Studies in the Sociology of Emotions Edited by Mary Holmes and Julie Brownlie Senior lecturers at the University of Edinburgh, UK The sociology of emotions has demonstrated the fundamental and pervasive relevance of emotions to all aspects of social life. It is not merely another specialized sub-discipline; rather it aims to reconfigure bases of mainstream sociology.This book series will not only be of interest for specialists in emotions but to sociology at large. It is a locus for developing enhanced understandings of core problems of sociology, such as power and politics, social interactions and everyday life, macro-micro binaries, social institutions, gender regimes, global social transformations, the state, inequality and social exclusion, identi- ties, bodies and much more.

Through empirical research he has advanced sociological theories of emotion and interaction in topics including how social bonds are formed, maintained and disrupted during classroom interactions, how emotion management unfolds as a social phe- nomenon, and he has conceptualised emotions as social phenomena. These topics lead to practical implications for classroom practitioners seeking to support the formation, repair and sustenance of social bonds between stu- dents and students and teachers, they inform teacher emotion management practices for sustaining social bonds, and identify the connections between emotion and understanding science concepts.
