Abstract
Provides a unique collection of ethnographies offering empirical insight into the locally unfolding work of repair, in and across multiple situations of technology use and material practice
Addresses repair work as a multifaceted phenomenon unfolding sequentially before, during and after failure, wear, deterioration, weakening etc. for a qualified and diversified readership in anthropology, sociology, and STS scholarship
Makes a critical contribution to relocating materiality, recasting the recent, largely conceptual debates in anthropology, sociology, and science and technology studies (STS) around notions of “materiality”, “socio-materiality”, or “non-human agency” in terms of the situated intelligibility of unfolding courses of repair work Show more
