Abstract
The study of the organization and experiencing of emotion in everyday life is called for. A phenomenology of emotion is proposed and its relevance for the study of deviance and deviant conduct is suggested. The foundations of an interpretive social psychology are sketched, drawing upon the works of William James, Scheler, Husserl, Schutz, Sartre and Merleau-Ponty. The “cognitive bias” in traditional symbolic interactionist thought is criticized, as are the works of Erving Goffman.
