Affects and emotions are essential factors of the social and of coexistence in societies of the twenty-first century.
At the CRC Affective Societies – Dynamics of social coexistence in mobile worlds, our goal is to establish a new understanding of societies, in which the fundamental meaning of affectivity and emotionality is taken into account. For this we investigate mobile, interconnected, and mediatized worlds of the global present as well as transformation and crisis dynamics accompanying them.
