Mapping Chapter 5 onto Wheeler & Glucksmann (2015)

Plan for tightening the W&G linkage in Chapter 5 #KBHWDX / #28QJS4 Source for W&G framework: thesis paraphrase #QZZ3WS and Evans/Jackson/Beswick-Parsons #V9QTJP esp. #DP97U6 #8EF7DD #BJBAM8 #PL8J2F #TGNATK The W&G original is not in the corpus as a standalone document; #V9QTJP is the closest secondary source to lean on as a bridge text since it extends W&G from recycling to reuse.

W&G’s three dimensions and where Chapter 5 already enacts them:

  1. TECHNICAL (division of tasks and skills).

  2. MODAL (interdependencies across household / market / state / voluntary).

  3. PROCESSUAL (labour across the whole span of provision).

Two distinctive extensions of W&G that Brīvbode evidences (already foreshadowed in #GVSJY8 A. Receiving-node labour problem. W&G’s recycling pipeline ends in industrial sorting; Brīvbode’s ends in another household. When the modal location of the receiver is voluntary rather than municipal, labour intensifies at the receiving end (Alise’s curation, Linards’ taxonomy work, the bumblebee metaphor #7PZ3FF Worth foregrounding in conclusion #68Q9HM B. Restraint as consumption work. W&G focus on the labour required to participate in consumption; at Brīvbode, NOT taking is also work — Marta’s reframing of freeness #5ZT984 #EAYJVU #RX8VDD Zane’s stylist-as-filter #E4ER8D #8P932F Marta’s anti-impulse practice #GRGEN2 #VPWR7R Extends consumption work to include cognitive/emotional self-regulation under conditions of free abundance.

Concrete edits:

  • Add a framing sentence in #5NTP3P / #XHXRPM naming the three W&G dimensions as the chapter’s spine.

  • At #6QTCQA cite W&G’s gendered allocation directly.

  • Open #MWZ4EG (around #RKHJDK by naming divestment-networks as the processual dimension extended outward.

  • Open #9BTE5A (around #7FDMRZ by naming volunteer labour as the modal dimension — third-sector consumption work.

  • In conclusion #68Q9HM lead with extensions A and B.

  • Use Evans/Jackson/Beswick-Parsons #V9QTJP as the bridge citation since they explicitly carry W&G from recycling to reuse.
