Emotion Commotion on Election Eve

A conversation with UvA's Americanists

US elections are occasions for a range of emotions, including anger, melancholy, and relief. On November 4, Americanists from the University of Amsterdam will inspect the election on its eve. The minute-to-minute horse-race commentary will then be at its oversaturated peak. The aim of this event is neither prediction nor familiar punditry, but a broader perspective on the emotions that have inflected American political pivots, past and present.

Emotions, just like politics, have particular histories and take particular shapes. What emotional twists does the current election reveal? What can we learn from the history of emotions and elections? And what is or isn’t peculiar to the United States?  

This programme is organised by the America in the World research group, which is a part of the Amsterdam School of Historical Studies.

Over SPUI25

SPUI25 is the academic-cultural podium of Amsterdam. Since 2007, we have been giving scientists, authors, artists and other thinkers the opportunity to shine a light on issues that occupy, inspire or concern them. In cooperation with a large number of academic and cultural partners, we organize between 250 and 300 freely accessible programs per year. These are enriching, often interdisciplinary programs that move between science and culture, fact and fiction.

SPUI25 is one of the UvA podia in the University Quarter.
