Description
The Emotions of Protest by James M. Jasper explores the connection between emotions and protest in social movements. Research has traditionally focused on the cognitive aspects of protest, but Jasper argues that understanding emotions is essential to grasping the complexities of collective action. Protestors, like individuals in general, experience a range of emotions, from moral outrage to fear and hate. These feelings are not separate from rational thought, but rather intertwined with it. By examining the emotional underpinnings of protest, Jasper sheds light on the intricate relationships between our bodily experiences, social contexts, and moral frameworks. This book offers a nuanced perspective on the role of emotions in shaping social life and collective action.
