AbstractBrief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
This article discusses the place of emotion in Javanese society. It argues for an expanded understanding of social sentiments that would recognize a structuring role for emotion beyond the family and the shaping, through emotional practices, of a fluid but crucial level of 'community'.
