Emotions, Politics and War
«
'This multi-disciplinary collection effectively hits every dimension of its title. It contains incisive engagements with concepts and illustrations of emotions, politics and war. It will serve as an outstanding text for scholars and students interested in a philosophically attuned approach to war’s experiential implications.' - Michael J. Shapiro, University of Hawai’i at Manoa
'In this valuable contribution to the emerging field of scholarship at the nexus of experience, aesthetics, and war, Åhäll and Gregory provide a unique collection of essays that engage questions of what it means to be human, to whom we grant that standing, and how we might first admit, and then make sense of, the darkly pleasurable horrors of violence. The authors offer a range of methodologies to better understand how we might theorise emotions, showing that there is much to be learned from mixed-method, multidisciplinary approaches to the tangled emotionality of war.' - Laura J. Shepherd, Associate Professor of International Relations at UNSW Australia
‘If emotions have never been missing from our politics, or our very experience of existence, why have they been missing from our knowledge? In an age increasingly without bearings, this splendid and important work offers an authoritative guide for understanding the emotional political of war’ Anthony Burke, Associate Professor International and Political Studies Program at UNSW, Australia

A growing number of scholars have sought to re-centre emotions in our study of international politics, however an overarching book on how emotions matter to the study of politics and war is yet to be published. This volume is aimed at filling that gap, proceeding from the assumption that a nuanced understanding of emotions can only enhance our engagement with contemporary conflict and war.
Providing a range of perspectives from a diversity of methodological approaches on the conditions, maintenance and interpretation of emotions, the contributors interrogate the multiple ways in which emotions function and matter to the study of global politics. Accordingly, the innovative contribution of this volume is its specific engagement with the role of emotions and constitution of emotional subjects in a range of different contexts of politics and war, including the gendered nature of war and security; war traumas; post-conflict reconstruction; and counterinsurgency operations.
Looking at how we analyse emotions in war, why it matters, and what emotions do in global politics, this volume will be of interest to students and scholars of critical security studies and international relations alike.
