Beyond Repair: Breaking as World-Making in Contemporary Social Movements

New publication by Associate Professor Valeria Graziano (CAS SEE, University of Rijeka) in Theory, Culture & Society.

In “Beyond Repair: Breaking as World-Making in Contemporary Social Movements,” Graziano examines breaking as a material and political practice, asking how disruption can open possibilities for world-making beyond the imperative of repair.

The article draws on contemporary social movements to explore breaking through intentionality, labour, temporality, and byproduction.
