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?
