This chapter explores the concept of "affective states" and their significance in shaping political landscapes. It argues against a simplistic dichotomy between reason and emotion, emphasizing the intertwined nature of affect and political rationality. Stoler examines how affective states, such as fear, anxiety, and anger, are mobilized and manipulated in political contexts, influencing power dynamics, social relations, and collective action. The chapter draws on historical and ethnographic examples to illustrate the complex interplay between affect, discourse, and political practice, highlighting the importance of understanding the emotional dimensions of power.
