The Universality of Emotion

Texte du rabat

Not supplied by the author. This Element surveys how a number of major disciplines psychology, neuroscience, sociology, anthropology, philosophy, history, linguistics, and literary/cultural studies have addressed the long-standing research question of whether human emotions should be thought of as meaningfully 'universal.' The Element presents both the universalist and anti-universalist positions, and concludes by considering attempts to move beyond this increasingly unhelpful binary.
