情绪经常被组织用来操纵和压制工人。然而，这种压制可能对他们产生不利的心理和社会后果。本书阐述了这种压抑发生的途径，并提供了情绪调节作为工人从这种压抑和社会控制中解放出来的工具。
这本书汇集了批判理论和情绪调节方面的大量无关文献，阐明了目前在管理中未充分探索的两种社会控制途径：一种是利用情绪的社会功能，另一种是关于情绪的讨论超越其社会功能。作者阐述了工人可以开始“看穿”压抑的过程，并采用情绪调节策略来解放自己。这些策略可能在短期到中期内有效，但从长期来看，工人最终可能会换工作。如果员工流动变得不可持续，组织可以首先寻求改变导致压迫工人的社会结构。
结合新的理论见解与实际知情的小插曲，这本书将呼吁学者和学生在许多社会科学学科，包括商业研究，组织研究，认知变化，社会学和心理学。无论是从业经理还是心灰意冷的员工，都会发现这本书很有启发性。
Emotion is often used by organizations to manipulate and repress workers. However, this repression can have adverse psychological and social consequences for them. This book articulates the pathways through which this repression occurs, and offers emotion regulation as a tool for workers to emancipate themselves from this repression and social control.
Bringing together the largely unconnected literatures on critical theory and emotion regulation, this book articulates two pathways to social control currently underexplored in management: one where the social functions of emotion are exploited, and one where discussions about emotion override its social function. The author illustrates the processes through which workers can start to ‘see through’ the repression, and enlist emotion regulation strategies to emancipate themselves from it. These strategies may work in the short to medium term but, in the long term, workers may eventually change jobs. If staff turnover becomes unsustainable, the organization can seek to change the social structures causing the repression of workers in the first place.
Combining fresh theoretical insights with practically informed vignettes, this book will appeal to academics and students across many social science disciplines, including business studies, organization studies, cognitive change, sociology and psychology. Both practising managers and disenchanted workers will also find this an enlightening read.
