This edited collection challenges individualised understandings of emotion, revealing how they relate to cultural, economic and political realities in difficult times.
Combining numerous empirical studies and theoretical developments from around the world, the diverse contributors explore how dystopian visions of the future influence, and are influenced by, the emotions of an anxious and precarious present.

Contributions by: Vern Smith, Geraint Harvey, Deborah Lupton, Michael Hviid Jacobsen, Briohny Doyle, Gina Chin-Yi Yang, Kiran Grewal, Marlee Bower, Rebecca E. Olson
