By means of a case study with a beginning Vietnamese university teacher we attempt to answer two questions 1 what sorts of emotions does the ECT experience in her organizational socialization and in challenging micropolitical situations in particular 2 what kinds of action does the ECT employ in such situations The research material consists of three narrative interviews within one academic year. The findings highlight the importance of the micropolitics of the school as an organization and the multiple emotional dimensions that are present when ECTs strive to reconcile the school micropolitics with their own beliefs and values as teachers. Along with that the research contributes knowledge about how ECTs learn to negotiate challenging micropolitical situations using diverse types of micropolitical actions. Implications are also proposed with regard to teacher training and induction. Keywords micropolitics early career teachers emotions micropolitical actions 1.
