Seminal studies about institutional theory highlighted the focus on cognitive issues in research on institutions. However, during the last few years, a growing body of literature has also been devoted to understanding the role of emotions in institutional dynamics. In one of the classic texts on institutional theory, Scott emphasizes three institutional pillars, the regulatory, the normative, and the cognitive. Researchers point out that there is now a fourth pillar: the role of emotions in institutional theory. This article explores the emotions’ role in institutional dynamics, especially related to women’s political participation in the 2018 Brazilian elections. Three cases of female candidates who showed high performance in pre-election polls, were discussed. The research analyzed the candidates’ interviews and social media, observing their emotions in publications and expressions. Also, emotional expressions of society toward the studied candidates, as well as expressions potentially reflecting the institutional dynamic present in the Brazilian political arrangement, were analyzed. The main results show that during the 2018 Brazilian electoral campaign, in the face of the institutionalization of a masculine environment on the political scenario, the society expressed emotions of hatred and aggression against the three candidates since they violated institutional arrangements about behaviors considered acceptable in the dominant institutional logic. Despite this, two of the three female candidates were elected with the highest number of votes in their states, surpassing their male competitors. The candidate who was not elected obtained a significant number of votes.
Population aging is one of the most significant phenomena in the 21st century and this phenomenon has important far-reaching impacts on society and organizations. Organizations and society face challenges with the increase and permanence of individuals at work and these reflexes can be perceived by the organizational culture. Organizational culture and its elements are also present in the academic environment, composed of multiple social interactions. This study aims to identify and analyze the meanings that elements of organizational culture have for higher education professors in the process of aging at public and private educational institutions. For this, semi-structured interviews were conducted with professors from a public and a private institution and the data were analyzed using the comparative case study strategy. The results show that the elements f organizational culture such as values, norms, rules, communication, rites, rituals, ceremonies and beliefs are different in public and private HEIs and the elements heroes, myths, stories, sagas and taboos demonstrate similarities in the institutions. In addition, the elements indicate particularities and the unpreparedness of the HEIs facing the phenomenon of aging in educational work.
Objetivos: analisar a relação entre a work passion e as escolhas da carreira de policiais e bombeiros militares brasileiros em participarem de missões de paz da ONU. Metodologia/abordagem: A abordagem de pesquisa foi qualitativa, sob estratégia de estudo qualitativo básico. Foram entrevistados oito policiais militares e um bombeiro militar participantes em missões de paz por meio de entrevistas semi-estruturadas e a análise, deu-se com o auxílio de análise de conteúdo (Bardin, 2011). Principais resultados: Percebeu-se que a relação entre work passion e escolhas de carreira dá-se em uma relação cíclica e a work passion foi vista como um elemento emocional presente no “autodirecionamento” do indivíduo, sendo este uma das bases da carreira proteana. Contribuições acadêmicas: propõe-se o entrelaçamento entre a work passion e o desenvolvimento da carreira proteana, enfatizando-se a dimensão emocional presente nas decisões racionais que os trabalhadores tomam ao longo do seu crescimento profissional. Contribuições práticas: Evidenciou-se que mesmo em organizações consideradas tradicionais, em seus aspectos de carreira, existem possibilidades de escolhas características da carreira proteana. Nesse sentido, buscou-se publicizar acerca da participação de profissionais em missões de paz, as quais podem representar uma oportunidade de crescimento profissional e emocional, destacando-se a relevância que a work passion possui diante das decisões de carreira.

As emoções são um tema incipiente na área de estudos organizacionais e possibilitam inúmeras interpretações e pequisas a seu respeito. Assim, considerando-se a novidade da temática ao campo, a partir da técnica metassíntese foi possível formular o seguinte questionamento norteador deste artigo: Como as emoções são abordadas na área de estudos organizacionais? Os principais resultados demonstraram que as emoções em estudos organizacioanis são vistas como aspectos emergentes influenciados pelo contexto e, em estudos de caso, raramente são o foco principal. Com este estudo, constata-se outras maneiras de se trazer as emoções para estudos organizacionais que possuem o potencial de desenvolvimento e discussão. Expõe-se, por fim, maneiras de se aprofundar a referida temática, provendo direções para futuras pesquisas com base nos achados dos artigos selecionados.
O presente trabalho tem como objetivo evidenciar o panorama das publicações relacionadas às emoções no trabalho disponíveis na base de dados Web of Science. Para tanto, foram apresentadas as principais características e possíveis hot topics relacionados ao tema no período de 2009 a 2020. Em relação aos procedimentos metodológicos, o estudo foi dividido em duas etapas. Na primeira parte da pesquisa, as informações levantadas foram: total de publicações, ano, áreas temáticas, título das fontes, autores com maior número de publicações, instituições vinculadas à publicação, países, idiomas e artigos mais citados. Na segunda parte da pesquisa, foi elaborada uma lista com 30 possíveis hot topics associados à temática central do estudo a partir da análise das publicações e da fundamentação teórica. Os resultados contribuem para que os pesquisadores possuam acesso a informações dos principais autores, journals, locais e áreas relacionadas às emoções no trabalho, além de proporcionar um panorama internacional sobre o tema pesquisado. ABSTRACT This paper aims to highlight the panorama of publications related to emotions at work available in the Web of Science database. To this end, the main characteristics and possible hot topics related to the theme in the period from 2009 to 2020 were presented. Regarding the methodological procedures, the study was divided into two stages. In the first part of the research, the information collected was: total number of publications, year, thematic areas, title of the sources, authors with the most publications, institutions linked to the publication, countries, languages and most cited articles. In the second part of the research, a list of 30 possible hot topics associated with the central theme of the study was elaborated from the analysis of the publications and the theoretical foundation. The results contribute to researchers having access to information about the main authors, journals, places, and areas related to emotions at work, in addition to providing an international panorama about the researched theme.
