Abstract
A meditation on Dorinne Kondo’s Worldmaking, this essay attends to the work of reparative creativity in Kondo’s text. Revisiting Melanie Klein’s theory of reparation alongside Kondo’s rich discourse on racialization, repair, and creativity, the essay follows Kondo to insist upon a framing of reparation that attends to both its creative and destructive psychic, political, and social effects.
期刊介绍:
Our Editorial Collective seeks to publish research - and occasionally other materials such as interviews, documents, literary creations - focused on the structured inequalities of the contemporary world, and the myriad ways people negotiate these conditions. Our approach is adamantly plural, following the basic "intersectional" insight pioneered by third world feminists, whereby multiple axes of inequalities are irreducible to one another and mutually constitutive. Our interest in how people live, work and struggle is broad and inclusive: from the individual to the collective, from the militant and overtly political, to the poetic and quixotic.
