Details In this global situation, problems of identity politics are becoming more complex. To get a handle on these problems, this paper tries to focus on the relationship between culture and emotion. Emotion is one of the most important elements in understanding globalized world, because we always use our emotions to interpret others or other cultures in case that we do not have any ways to judge them. Since emotion is signified as meanings we create in media culture, it is closely related to the production of identities. The aim of the paper is to clarify how emotions affect our identities and our daily lives.
