Research Interests:
My research interests include the study of emotions in the field of social and culturalcontexts. My work is at large interdisciplinary and integrates psychological, cultural, psychoanalytic and sociological perspectives. Its main thrust is to develop a socio-cultural understanding of the forces that construct emotional events. phenomena and experiences. I Particularly focus on the complex relations between discourse and socio-emotional constructions and their working mechanisms, such as how social dependency and autonomy work, or the working of hatred as a social ideoligy. In the last few year I have been also promoting a new research discipline in the area of visual sociology; how normative emotions are visually represented and creat meanings. |
