Creative Disruption
Springer International Publishing (Verlag)
978-3-031-63660-8 (ISBN)
Thinking and doing through a diverse set of theories, methodologies and writing registers, this edited collection explores the potential of creative disruption as psychosocial praxis. Moments of disruption - planned and unplanned - are everywhere in the fragile terrain of society, from micro-level gestures of resistance and refusal at the local scale to globally disruptive phenomena such as climate and ecological breakdown and pandemics. The authors of this collection ask instead: how might the disruption we encounter open up junctures for creative and ethical psychosocial engagement?
This collection introduces new and emerging voices in psychosocial scholarship from within and beyond academia and the clinic, which brings unique perspectives that have been historically discarded, marginalised or neglected within mainstream academic knowledge production. The contributors examine disruption as a catalyst for discomfort and discontent, drawing from black feminism, whiteness studies, theories of racialisation, queer theory, disability studies, psychoanalysis, postcolonial studies, and more. The authors explore questions of power, knowledge, memory, embodiment and the potential of multidisciplinary approaches in nurturing disruption.
