Since William James asked the question &lsquo\;What is an emotion?&rsquo\;\, philosophers\, psychologists\, and neuroscientists have disagreed about the answer. Indeed\, even though almost everybody accepts that emotions are typically associated with conscious feelings\, bodily changes\, action tendencies and propositional attitudes\, disagreement looms large as to which of these constitute the emotion.The international conference on "Emotions: Nature\, Recognition and Culture" aims to address some of the most controversial issues in the interdisciplinary study of emotions. The meeting is divided into three interconnected sections: i) the nature of emotions\, ii) emotion recognition\, and iii) the role of culture in the study of emotions.
