  1. Outcats spirit António Pedro Dores http://iscte.pt/~apad ESA - Lisboa, Septembre 2009

  2. Fear emotion • Fear is known as a freezing emotion • Jack Barbalet stress: a) fear can be a startle emotion b) fear is not only felt by low classes

  3. Greek uprising Dec 2008 • When police kill someone it meant to freeze “criminals” and/or “poor people” • Institutions claim often they cannot punish police killing because “it is their work to use force” – to produce social fear • Social prestige of greek police is bad • Political support to police is not published

  4. Outcast • “No fear”/”ignition effect” turn frigth into startle. Some times the fear produced by police must be reinforced by judicial or political decisons condemning popular reations (as much as vice-versa) • Those who learn (as social practice) to oppose police (and political and judicial) decisons concerning violence feel and live as outcast

  5. Outcast spirit • Outcast spirit means to deal with fear in a special manner – developing the emotion into action, instead of freezing: • Durkheim “criminal” social creativity • Reversing submission consequences of fear described by Barbalet – changing institutions (social movements)

  6. The end

  7. Emotions consequences • Fear of the consequences of social secret revelation (inmigration and justice study). Is it fear or is it (criminal) rational calculus? • Sarkozy Paris riots, November 2005. Was it social fear (of internal terrorism) or was it political calculus?

  8. Emotions sequences • Fear: frighten or startle? Outcast or upperclass? • Greek uprising December 2008 case 1. frighten the police and the governament 2. startle youth and outcast politicians and population

  9. Social movement • Looking for social transformations or looking for revival of labor movements? • Should it need a rational, explicit and sucessful orientation or it is enough to join people feeling solidarity, regardless the long term consequences?

  10. Social individuals • Individual social movements (mood changes and social reception) and social emotions (difusion and tuning) • Irreversability of human lives and reversability of social changes

  11. Social instability • Natural individual and social instability • The outcast function – the resistence • The outcast culture – the history • The outcast path – the path for change • The subversion of fear: when it startle who is supposed to be frighten and frighten who is supposed to be startle

  12. The globalization of the subversion of fear • Financial crisis and social consequences (the fear of the powerful) • Frighten of powerful classes and the startle of outcast • The experience of the emergence of the “society” (the positive feeling of fear, the oportunity to develop social individualism) depends on the situation of social structure

  13. The end
