Beyond the Feeling Individual: Insights from Sociology on Emotions and Embeddedness
批评组织研究将情感视为个体现象，提出应从社会学视角理解情感的社会性，整合集体情感、情感能量与情感资本三个概念，构建情感嵌入性模型，为管理研究提供新方向。
Abstract Organizational scholars have treated emotions mostly as an individual‐level phenomenon, with limited theorisation of emotions as an important component in social embeddedness. In this review essay, we argue for the need for a toolkit to study emotions as an inherently social phenomenon. To do so, we apply insights from sociology that have been under‐utilized in management and organization research. We focus on three sociological concepts: collective emotions and social bonds, emotional energy and moral batteries, and emotional capital. We then develop an integrative model of emotional embeddedness to emphasize that emotions are socially constructed and socially authorized. We end the paper by setting out a research agenda for more research in management and organization that is informed by these three concepts.
