In the Meantime

Toward an Anthropology of the Possible

Herausgeber: Masquelier, Adeline; Durham, Deborah

Beschreibung

The â meantimeâ represents the gap between what is past and the unknown future. When considered as waiting, the meantime is defined as a period of suspension to be endured. By contrast, the contributors of this volume understand it as a space of â the possibleâ where calculation coexists with uncertainty, promises with disappointment, and imminence with deferral.
