ABSTRACT

Today, we understand how dangerous the disgust is. Because the disgust is an emotion that can cause or promote the various social discrimination and even lead to the hate crime. Nevertheless, to solve the problem of the disgust is not an easy task. We have heard of a lot of social campaigns about the dangers of disgust, but the disgusting acts do not cease. This is because, above all, the disgust is both a social act and a natural psychological phenomenon of an individual. Moreover, there seems to be a kind of positive function in the disgust. We could call it the duplicity of the disgust. This article focuses on the complexity of the disgust problem from the perspective of the duplicity of disgust, and analyzes the phenomenon of the disgust from a phenomenological point of view, and seeks the direction of problem solving by elucidating the correlations with the emotions, such as anxiety, especially related to the disgust. To this end, we will use not a linear causal analysis, but a motive relationship analysis and E. Husserl’s an phenomenological analysis of the Fundierung relationship.
