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:
TECHNICAL (division of tasks and skills).
Transport: #6QTCQA “Women sort, men transport” — direct echo of W&G’s gendered recycling allocation, worth citing W&G inline.
Skills/competencies: #CWXHL7 #HJF23L #YZDJU5 #9RX2QF #4ZCLUF #KVCP6E #7LU3R9
Gendered allocation / Miller moral agency: #SNC5RR #MXZN97 #V7DXC5 #4SMHWT #K4KJQJ #6RRMVC #LTN8RV
MODAL (interdependencies across household / market / state / voluntary).
Routing hierarchy as modal map: #W93YN9 #B9N85B (sell → freecycle group → Brīvbode → H&M textile bin distributes household labour across market, peer-to-peer, third sector, corporate take-back).
Volunteer labour as third-sector receiver: #7FDMRZ #Z7ANRZ #NHREHJ #86RXET #7YTENL #JYVEQX
Non-monetary settlement of labour: #UAFKKQ “Nekas nav par brīvu”, #8MW6RD “mantas, tas ir maksa par moju rabotu”, #WE9459
Decluttering industry / corporate offloading: #94FU8F #AFN7NT #QXBJU8 #H9GZ5Q #8ZZTPK #A6VL6U (e-shop returns the money on condition the clothes go to charity — pure modal redistribution).
PROCESSUAL (labour across the whole span of provision).
Divestment networks as processual extension across households: #RKHJDK #HGQDB4 #4KWVTV #XUKNBC #WD3W42 #NNT8E3 #GNB4DY #YQFKT4 #WURLCF #QCWLHW
Curation as bridge phase between donor and recipient: #YZDJU5 #4ZCLUF #HCXEAS
Quality friction = downstream phase absorbing upstream slack: #9RX2QF #W9TW7W
Mirror Evans/Jackson/Beswick-Parsons’ four-phase recirculation schema #PL8J2F #BJBAM8 identify → prepare → store/manage → mobilise. Adapt for Brīvbode by extending the chain to the receiving household.
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.
