Strangers in Their Own Land: Allegory, Emotion & Right Wing Opposition to Equality | Hochschild 2015

Ulysses Medal lecture delivered by Prof Arlie Russell Hochschild (UC Berkeley Sociology Department) 10 September 2015 "In much of the world, the gap between rich and poor has widened. Yet, across Europe and the U.S. many rising right-wing groups oppose the very idea of equality. Why? Based on new fieldwork on the U.S. Tea Party – embraced by some quarter to a third of all voting Americans, I ask: what emotional needs does such a movement meet? How does emotion underlie political belief? In answer, I propose the concept of an allegorical story. It is a collectively shared, honor-focused, “feels-as-if” story."
