Monarchy and emotions: the temporal factor in the institutional and personal assessment of the Emeritus king in Spain
Abstract
This article aims to analyze the possible differences in the current assessment of the emeritus king, Juan Carlos I, and explain them through an emotional reading. Through the use of quantitative techniques, the findings show, on the one hand, a differential generational jump in the assessment of the king emeritus, and on the other, a different emotional development towards the king emeritus depending on his role in the transition or the present. The assessment of the former head of state is explained only through positive emotions towards the king emeritus when these are limited to the transition, while his assessment through current emotions combines positive and negative emotions.
