Save 30% on #NewBook "Promises Beyond Memory" by Vikki Bell, which examines how archives of contemporary political violence in South America create new possibilities for circulating stories of violence to defend against future attempts to rewrite the past. buff.ly/qZp8Um0
Cover of Promises Beyond Memory: Archives, Art, and the Afterlives of Violence in Latin America by Vikki Bell. The upper part of the design features a faded image of two people with their eyes closed, flanking another image of a gold altar with a woman's face superimposed on it. The title is below the image in large, gold serif font, and the subtitle and author's name in smaller white text on the right side.

In this editorial, we've taken the opportunity of being 3 years in - amidst the "flow or tide" of submissions - to ask how the field's energies are being distributed, + reflect on the concepts and theories that are so central to new STS work that they almost form a canon or infrastructure...

the Urban Institute at Sheffield is one of the few remaining places in the UK where truly wild thinking is still alive and kicking, against all odds. It's an honour and pleasure to be able to pay tribute to them.

Just using my first post here to thank my amazing hosts (Pedro Moscoso & Antonia Viu, Felipe Palma, Manuel Tironi, and Feilpe Lagos) in the trip across Chile from a few weeks ago. Absolutely full of generative conversations with friends and brilliant work by bright, thoughtful emerging scholars.
