Description:... First Published in 1988. This special issue of The Journal of Mathematical Sociology reports continuing work on affect control theory -- a theory of social behavior that deals with role actions such as those of doctors toward patients, with deviant behaviors such as those of muggers toward victims, and with creative responses to events such as sanctioning a misbehaved child or labeling a deviant.
