How might political emotions contribute to the creation of a decent
public sphere? Our societies are characterized by difference and
contestation. Cultivating political emotions can appear
counterproductive to stability and peace. But there is an
increasing recognition that emotions can be harnessed to empower
community cohesion and social justice - and new ideas about how our
political emotions can foster a decent public sphere and overcome
intolerance are urgently needed. In Political Emotions: Towards a
Decent Public Sphere, leading theorists consider the limits and
prospects of cultivating our emotions that support social justice.
All examine this topic from a diversity of disciplinary
perspectives breaking new ground and yielding new understandings.
Issues explored include adaptive preferences, capabilities, civil
religion, compassion, conscience, dignity, feminism, imagination,
multicultural citizenship, perfectionism, political liberalism,
public sentiments, sympathy and much more in a wide-ranging
exploration of key themes in contemporary political philosophy -
and Martha C. Nussbaum's significant contributions to it in
particular - that should be of interest to anyone working in these
broad areas.
