It is commonly assumed that capitalism has created an a-emotional world dominated by bureaucratic rationality; that economic behavior conflicts with intimate, authentic relationships; that the public and private spheres are irremediably opposed to each other; and that true love is opposed to calculation and self-interest. Eva Illouz rejects these conventional ideas and argues that the culture of capitalism has fostered an intensely emotional culture in the workplace, in the family, and in our own relationship to ourselves. She argues that economic relations have become deeply emotional, while close, intimate relationships have become increasingly defined by economic and political models of bargaining, exchange, and equity. This dual process by which emotional and economic relationships come to define and shape each other is called emotional capitalism. Illouz finds evidence of this process of emotional capitalism in various social sites: self-help literature, women's magazines, talk shows, support groups, and the Internet dating sites. How did this happen? What are the social consequences of the current preoccupation with emotions? How did the public sphere become saturated with the exposure of private life? Why does suffering occupy a central place in contemporary identity? How has emotional capitalism transformed our romantic choices and experiences? Building on and revising the intellectual legacy of critical theory, this book addresses these questions and offers a new interpretation of the reasons why the public and the private, the economic and the emotional spheres have become inextricably intertwined.

沒勁
评分關注麵很廣，有不少inspiring的視角，但很多都缺乏進一步的論述。比如therapeutic rhetoric相對於一個完美的、理想化的、可無限延伸的（同時也是規範化的）“healthy”概念建構起瞭“unhealthy”，而後者便幾乎可覆蓋所有的behavior，由此創立一個emotional hierarchy，但這種hierarchy究竟如何影響瞭不同人的生活？指齣第二波女權主義敘事和心理學敘事的閤謀，但隻是如教科書般作瞭特徵總結式的比較，並未瀝清完整的曆史發生邏輯，而這一視角也本可能成為一個重要的理論工具，很適宜於分析當代社運。提到學者很多，但都如蜻蜓點水一般，更像是“引用”而非理論對話。最後Chapter 3作為一個case study，使視點更散漫瞭，也沒能帶來“驚奇”。

评分很有趣。作者的理論視野很open-minded。洞見處處可見，譬如批判online dating invoking fantasies and yet suppressing romantic feelings，真可謂一語中的。對心理治療的批判角度也非常準，力度再大點就好瞭。-- 以及寫作再自律一點就好瞭
