“…Within sociology, emotion is trapped between opposing ends of numerous culturally rendered dichotomies: - natural or cultural (Erickson & Cottingham, ; Harkness & Hitlin, ; Leavitt, ; Scheff, ; B. Turner, ; J. H. Turner, ),
- subjective or objective (Arweck, ; Campe & Weber, ; Furedi, ; Pilkington, ),
- rational/logical/reasonable or irrational/illogical/unreasonable , also known as emotion vs . cognition (Ariffin, Coicaud, & Popovski, ; Barbalet, ; Berezin, ; Burkart & Weggen, ; Davis, ; Iagulli, ; Jasper, ; Kunkel, ; Loseke & Kusenbach, ; Lutz, ),
- private/individual/internal/inner or public/collective/external/outer (Ariffin et al, ; Berezin, ; Harkin, ; Lively, ; Pilkington, ; Stets, ),
- mind or body (Chandler, ; Ross, ; Shilling, ; Smith‐Lovin & Thoits, ; Wettergren, ),
- ideational/discursive or materialist (Knopp, ; Lyon, ; Ross, ),
- micro or macro (Bericat, ; Berezin, ; Jasper, ; Stets, ),
- structure or culture/agency (Bericat, ; Fox, ; Jasper, ; Lively & Weed, ), and
- expressive or experiential (Ariffin et al, ; Illouz, Gilon, & Shachak, ; Lively, ; Rogers & Robinson, ).
And the list goes on.…”
