Failurists: When Things go Awry
Edited by Sybille Lammes, Kat Jungnickel, Larissa Hjorth & Jen Rae
Failure is a popular topic of research. It has long been a source of study in fields such as sociology and anthropology, science and technology studies, privacy and surveillance, cultural, feminist and media studies, art, theatre, film, and political science. When things
go awry, breakdown, or rupture they lead to valuable insights into the mundane mechanisms of social worlds.
Yet, while failure is a familiar topic of research, failure in and as a tactic of research
is far less visible, valued, and explored.
In this book the authors reflect upon the role of creative interventions as a critical mode for methods, research techniques, fieldwork, and knowledge transmission or impact. Here, failure is considered a productive part of engaging with and in the field. It is about acknowledging the ÔmessÕ of the social and how we need methods, modes of attunement, and knowledge translation that address this complexity in nuanced ways.
In this collection, interdisciplinary researchers and practitioners share their practices, insights, and challenges around rethinking failure beyond normalized tropes. What does failure mean? What does it do? What does putting failure under the microscope do to our assumptions around ontology and epistemologies? How can it be deployed to challenge norms in a time of great uncertainty, crisis, and anxiety? And what are some of the ways resilience and failure are interrelated?
