Exploring the ambivalent grammar of empathy where questions of geo-politics and social justice are at stake - in popular science, international development, postcolonial fiction, feminist and queer theory - this book addresses the critical implications of empathy's uneven effects. It offers a vital transnational perspective on the 'turn to affect'.
Carolyn Pedwell is Senior Lecturer in Media and Cultural Studies at Newcastle University, UK. She is author of Feminism, Culture and Embodied Practice: The Rhetorics of Comparison and co-editor of 'Affecting Feminism: Questions of Feeling in Feminist Theory', a special issue of Feminist Theory.

(Robin Valenzuela, feminist review, Vol. 116 (1), July, 2017)
"Pedwell engages with the politics of empathy as a politics of emotion that is simultaneously material and discursive, relational and embodied, local and transnational. Due to its disciplinary breadth, Affective Relations

has something to offer anyone studying emotion from a biological, cultural, and/or political perspective." (Nicole Laliberté, Emotion, Space and Society, Vol. 21, November, 2016)
"Pedwell's rich study examines the diverse ways in which empathy is mobilised - from political speeches that uphold neoliberalism, to postcolonial literatures that refuse certain forms of empathic connection. ... The framework of Affective Relations is strongly interdisciplinary, bringing literatures from feminism, postcolonialism, neuroscience, psychoanalysis and popular science into dialogue. ... This is an ambitious project that highlights how empathy materialises in different spheres, through different media, and through different types of encounter."
