The sociology of emotions is now at the forefront of micro social
theory and research; and increasingly, the dynamics of emotions are
seen as one of the ways to link micro to macro-level social
processes. For in the end, what drives people to create social
structures and to maintain commitments to these structures is
emotion. The papers in this volume represent a broad array of
approaches to the analysis of emotions. Some come from well
established traditions in social psychology and micro
sociology???traditions such as symbolic interactionism, expectation
states research, interaction ritual theory, and power-status
theory. Others come from more macro-oriented theorizing in Europe;
another set comes from meso-level analysis of organizational
structures; and still others come from the opposite end of the
intellectual continuum and explore the physiology and evolution of
emotions. The goal of the volume is to sample the range of work in
an area that did not exist three decades ago in sociology and to
see the theoretical and research programs that sociological
theorists and researchers on emotions are pursuing. The sociology
of emotions is now a broad-based intellectual movement, with the
result that no one volume can fully capture the diversity of work
being performed by sociologists. Still, this volume attempts to
provide readers with a review of some of the more creative work on
emotional dynamics in human groupings.
