  • AGIR SUR SOI POUR AGIR SUR AUTRUI. Le travail affectif dans les relations entre dauphins et soigneurs Véronique Servais Antropología human dolphin dolphins liberalism Affective work Marinelands are entertainment companies whose main stars are marine mammals. Based on fieldwork conducted in a European aquatic park, this paper analyses how such a company deals with the many affects and emotions that intersect there: the dolphins’, the public’s, the trainers’ and the anti-captivity activists’. The first part of the paper shows that parks are engaged in a deliberate policy of affects that is used to legitimate captivity, in an international context that is globally unfavourable to it. The second part deals with trainers’ interactions with dolphins and document the affective work that trainers operate on themselves and on their animals in order to «produce» a dolphin that is eager to work and which they can trust. 2018 artículo científico 2813-5237 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=664773208006 fr http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=6647 Swiss Journal of Sociocultural Anthropology application/pdf Universität Bern Swiss Journal of Sociocultural Anthropology (Suiza) Vol.23
