Chapters 4–5 revision map: theory/literature connections and structure
Revision note for empirical Chapters 4–5. Chapter 4 works best as the practice-theory chapter: freecycling as a practice-entity made of materials, meanings and competencies #E3QN63 #VVZXM9 moving along the trajectory of things #QZ8Q4K Strong anchors: Tan & Yeoh on material co-presence, storage and spatial constraints #DJGUE3 #SP57EV for Brīvbode as physical infrastructure #Z48STM #YLHWNT #HZZ52R Widlok on give boxes decoupling giving/taking and anxieties about dumping/resale #BXEAUH #3JWRLY for moral economy/exchange-not-charity #B3A7P8 #AC8LX9 #8Q8FJL Evans’s 3As/3Ds and detachment #NZ35DC #Z4SQKT plus Bohlin on serial care/letting go #R3D4QX #R7ZTTM #KH4GUQ for attachment/letting go #G5UMDM #4ALAE2 #U575JS Smith & Jehlička quiet sustainability #YJA4V6 #PTWXU3 for sustainability section #VQARCF #NVL4HP Chapter 5 works best as consumption-work chapter: unpaid labour, valuation, modal/processual/gendered distribution #AFFP4F #DKNKM6 Anchors: Wheeler & Glucksmann definitions #K4CB2W #DP97U6 #H28U22 Larsen on thrift-store valuation/moving things along #P26BPV #W3LBHF #4UDNLK Evans/Jackson/Beswick-Parsons on reuse work being invisible domestic labour #Q6BLWD #G26N4U gendered sorting/transport #AYEXHQ #KCKDVU #GR39TD Tan & Yeoh/Hobson on social circularities and relational labour #WTJQJQ Suggested restructuring: move or integrate Chapter 4’s long competencies fragments #JXSMQW – #7AQN26 into Chapter 5.2 valuation work, or make them a cleaner subsection in Chapter 4 only if framed as competencies of practice rather than labour. Move #UM6BJY to a footnote or keep as tonal detail. Chapter 5 conclusion currently has duplicate conclusion fragments #WQCQ9A #ENZMT5 #JJA5J6 merge into #8JXBYH – #T5LNZ9
