在社會學領域中，「情緒」此一主題並沒有受到相當程度的重視。既有社會學理論中，與情緒相關的社會學大致有高夫曼的互動論、身體社會學研究、Hochschild的情緒勞動、以及女性主義研究之中有關女性情緒化、污名羞恥或歇斯底里等主題。面對日益複雜的現代/後現代社會，現在的人們到底有哪些情緒問題？如何解決？本課程切入當今的社會學、文化研究等跨學科領域，分析情緒的各種面向。關於情感的討論看起來是私領域的經驗，但是從社會學的分析觀點來看，會發現私人情緒，很多時候與集體意識、政治認同、公領域互相關連。但也有時候，私人情感經驗也不能完全化約成為集體或公領域的一部分。個人情感與社會情緒兩者到底有什麼關係？我們如何使個人以及社會都能朝向「更快樂」的終極目標前進？又什麼是人類的痛苦來源？本課程試圖從社會現象、社會學與跨學科的角度，來分析這個問題。
本課程將分為三部份：1. 本課程將同學分為四組，進行情緒研究調查。主題分別為四：「社會學如何能/不能幫助我們面對自己的情緒？大學生有哪些情緒問題？」「學術圈的情緒問題」「打工族與情緒勞動」「親子關係與情緒」。將於學期末繳交小組報告。
2.本課程教學的社會學主題分為：A. 性別、文化與情感政治：我們如何「旁觀他人的痛苦」？在大眾媒體與資訊氾濫的時代，我們對於他人的痛苦的理解，如何是媒體介入的一部分？「seeing is believing」將如何影響我們的認知？B.情緒勞動與勞動問題；C. 家庭教養與情緒衝突。D.探討社會學情緒關鍵字：創傷（trauma）、羞恥與污名（shame/stigma）、偏見（prejudice）、憤怒（anger）、親密關係（intimacy）、上癮（addiction）……。
3. 情緒與印度哲學：此部份將介紹近年來西方心理學界流行的「正念」心理學（mindfulness）與東方印度哲學的關係，並且探討不同哲學體系如何解釋並且提出解決人類痛苦之道。
In the social field, the topic of "emotion" is not valued to a considerable extent. In the existing social theory, the social sciences related to emotions include Goffman's interaction, physical social studies, Hochschild's emotional movements, and feminism research on female sentiment, stigma, shyness or hysteria. Faced with the increasingly complex modern/post-modern society, what are the emotional problems of today’s people? How to solve it? This course enters today's interdisciplinary fields such as social science and cultural studies, and analyzes various aspects of emotions. Discussions about emotions seem to be experience in the private domain, but from the perspective of social analysis, private emotions are found to be related to collective consciousness, political recognition, and public domains. But sometimes, personal emotional experience cannot be completely reconciled to become part of the collective or public domain. What is the relationship between personal emotions and social emotions? How do we enable individuals and society to move towards the ultimate goal of "happier"? And what is the source of human pain? This course test analyzes this problem from the perspective of social phenomena, social science and interdisciplinary perspectives.
This course will be divided into three parts: 1. This course will divide students into four groups to conduct market research and investigation. The topics are four: "How can society and cannot help us face our emotions? What are the emotional problems of college students?" "Emotional problems in the academic circle", "Working people and emotional sports", "Class relationships and emotions". A group report will be submitted at the end of the school year.
2. The social topics taught in this course are divided into: A. Gender, culture and emotional politics: How do we "observe the pain of others"? In an era of public media and information turbulence, how does our understanding of the pain of others be part of media intervention? How will “seeing is believing” affect our perception? B. Emotional and emotional problems; C. House tutoring and emotional conflict. D. Explore social emotional keywords: trauma, shame and stigma, prejudice, anger, intimacy, addiction...
3. Emotion and Indian Philosophy: This part will introduce the relationship between "mindfulness" psychology that has been popular in the Western psychology community in recent years and Eastern Indian Philosophy, and explore how different philosophical systems explain and propose ways to solve human pain.
