“…Accordingly, we suggest that ignoring the role that socially and culturally constructed emotions play in stakeholder relations results in underdeveloped theory and research. For example, it is common that relationships are intertwined with emotions, although a particular field might emphasize rational activity (Crawford, 2000). In the context of small businesses, stakeholder relationships are usually informal and proximate (e.g., Jenkins, 2006;Lähdesmäki and Suutari, 2012;Southwell, 2004), which increases the likelihood that emotions will play a role in the relationship (Ben-Ze'ev, 1992).…”

Although stakeholder salience theory has received a great deal of scholarly attention in the business ethics and management literature, the theory has been criticized for overemphasizing rationality in managerial perceptions. We argue that it is important to better understand what socially constructed emotions signal in business relations, and we posit the role of envy as a discursive resource used to signal and construct the asymmetrical power relations between small-business owner-managers and their stakeholders. Our study makes two primary contributions. First, we suggest that socially and culturally constructed emotions (such as envy) have significance in stakeholder salience analyses.Second, we suggest that socially and culturally constructed emotions provide a fruitful context in which to understand the limitations of owner-managers' personal and moral autonomy.

“…Likewise in IR, which has, only relatively recently begun to explore how 'the international' is also an embodied and emotional space (Crawford, 2000;Edkins, 2003;Shinko, 2010;Holmqvist, 2013;Åhall and Gregory, 2015). Within sociology, attention has predominantly been on the quantitative, with military sociology a side-lined sub-field.…”

“…It did so because it viewed states as rational actors making decisions based on given national interests within boundaries set by material structures. In realism, only one emotion is regarded as legitimate and rational: fear (Crawford 2000;Hall 2006;Weber 2010: 14À36). Moreover, rational fear was equated with physical threats and the pursuit of physical security (Saurette 2006: 495À496).…”

Japan and identity change: why it matters in International Relations

Two approaches to identity have been employed to explore issues in Japan's international relations. One views identity as constituted by domestic norms and culture, and as constitutive of interests, which in turn cause behaviour. Proponents view Japan's 'pacifist' and 'antimilitarist' identity as inherently stable and likely to change only as a result of material factors. In the other approach, 'Japan' emerges and changes through processes of differentiation vis-a-vis 'Others'. Neither 'domestic' nor 'material' factors can exist outside of such identity constructions. We argue that the second, relational, approach is more theoretically sound, but begs three questions. First, how can different identity constructions in relation to numerous Others be synthesised and understood comprehensively? Second, how can continuity and change be handled in the same relational framework? Third, what is the point of analysing identity in relational terms? This article addresses the first two questions by introducing an analytical framework consisting of three mutually interacting layers of identity construction. Based on the articles in this special issue, we argue that identity entrepreneurs and emotions are particularly likely to contribute to change within this model. We address the third question by stressing common ground with the first approach: identity enables and constrains behaviour. In the case of Japan, changes in identity construction highlighted by the articles in this special issue forebode a political agenda centred on strengthening Japan militarily.
