Abstract Due: 2025-04-15
Emotions shape the way individuals and communities navigate their personal and collective lives, influencing decisions, relationships and the structures that govern societies. They are deeply embedded in social, cultural and political contexts, acting as both a personal experience and a force that drives public action. This conference seeks to examine the central role of emotions in shaping identity, power relations and societal structures. By exploring how emotions are experienced, expressed and manipulated, we aim to foster a deeper understanding of their impact on contemporary social and political realities.
