The Expression of Anger in the Public Sphere

Abstract
What role, if any, does the expression of anger play in public deliberations or public life? In what circumstances is the expression of anger appropriate, if at all, and what does it achieve? Expressions of anger are abundant in public discourse and deliberation. Often, they are in response to some legitimate injustice that has occurred. Yet some expressions of anger seem appropriate, while others do not, even in response to the same event.
