Speakers:

Dr Anne-Marie Fortier (Lancaster)
Dr Rani Kawale (UEL)
Dr Bryan Teixeira (Director, Naz Project London)
Dr Lyndsey Moon
Dr Amal Treacher (Birkbeck)
Professor Simon Duncan (University of Bradford)
Dr Nicola Ansell and Dr Lorraine Young (Brunel)

This event brings together theoretical and empirical papers that focus
on how emotions are conceptualised, rationalised, experienced and
avoided in relation to 'race', ethnicity and sexuality when making sense
of difference. In reference to 'the nation', 'space', 'public life',
'the family', and 'qualitative' research the speakers consider:

How are national bonds connected to heterosexual love and
multiculturalism?
How are emotions constructed with reference to sexuality?
Is the regulation of emotional display an indication of sexual and
racial inequality?
How do people make sense of their lives in public through the way they
feel? How do moral rationalities about mothering, caring and employment
differ between social groups?
How can avoiding emotional engagements with research participants
living with AIDS lead to conflicting research outcomes?
