barriers to tenderness in Russian society

[Jane Costlow]

This strikes me as an odd, problematic and therefore revealing
project/map.  "Emotion" gets equated with laughing and smiling.  Might one
want to begin with definitions of "emotion"?  I'd love to see a map of the
US broekn down by regions.... in which case I'm quite sure that I've
happily moved from a childhood where people are "emotional" (the
smile-all-the-time south) to the "stoic" state of Maine.  Thank God.
