Description
Summary:There is no heritage without emotional sharing and clashing. This article explores the involvement of divergent emotions in heritage making by discussing the debate series of Imagine IC and the Reinwardt Academy and zooming in on the commemoration of slavery and imagery of 'Black Pete' in the Netherlands. We introduce 'emotion networking' as a methodology to approach present-day heritage production, aiming for a novel approach to engage with 'the collective'.
