Description

Experimenting with new ways of looking at the contexts, subjects, processes and multiple political stances that make up life at the margins, this book provides a novel source for a critical rethinking of marginalisation.

Drawing on post-colonialism and critical assemblage thinking, the rich ethnographic works presented in the book trace the assemblage of marginality in multiple case-studies encompassing the Global North and South.

These works are united by the approach developed in the book, characterised by the refusal of a priori definitions and by a post-human and grounded take on the assemblage of life.

The result is a nuanced attention to the potential expressed by everyday articulations and a commitment to produce an processual, vitalist and non-normative cultural politics of the margins.

The reader will find in this book a unique challenge to accepted and authoritative thinking and new insights to research life at the margins.
