Interstices of Dis/abling Experiences in Times of Crises
It is the very lived experiences of crises that draw attention to the situated relations of dis/embodied, spatial, and cultural practices that constitute dis/abling experiences that this Special Issue wishes to address and critically engage with. How are crises lived and experienced by disabled people and how can we learn from the experiences of disabled people in dealing with spatio-culturally situated differences and related specific constraint…
Techniques of Hearing
Counter/Infections
With COVID-19 we experience the dramatic effects of a cosmopolitical event by which a non-human actor politicizes, i.e. unbuttons the normalcy of the ‘cosmos’ of shared lived spaces, what we take for granted as and what we expect from a globalized life-world. The dynamics of infection unfold an existential learning situation not only of how we live and how we wish to live, but also how we may compose modes of counterinfections to become better ‘e…
Feet Apart
Introduction to Spaces and Cultures of Quarantine. This special issue assembles a set of short interventions selected by internal blind review from submissions in response to a call for papers. The contributors document the first phase of the pandemic from February to May 2020, reflect on and respond to the first few months of the global spread of COVID-19, its arrival in communities and its personal impacts and effects on the public realm, from …
Thinking with the living body
This paper argues that the 'biopsychosocial' model of the body highlights the importance of the psychosocial dimension for a better understanding of health and illness. Most importantly, by emphasising the fundamental relevance of values in the make-up of living systems, the biopsychosocial model radically challenges the common sense operation of evidence-based biomedical operations that bifurcate the body into the subjectivities of human percept…
The cosmopolitics of situated care
Everyday experiences of illness draw our attention to the importance of the cosmopolitics of care in and through which normalizing and normalized practices of care can neither be taken for granted nor be expected. Drawing on ethnographic work on issues of everyday care practices in heath care this article argues that caring relations demand an attentiveness to the emerging requirements of care in concrete situations. Shared policy rules are benef…
Strukturentstehung durch Verflechtung
Die Akteur-Netzwerk-Theorie stellt mit ihrer Forderung, die Verflechtungen zwischen Natur und Kultur, Gesellschaft und Technik strikt empirisch zu erforschen, eine Herausforderung für sozial- und kulturwissenschaftliche Konzeptionen des Sozialen dar. Entfaltet wird eine kritische Diskussion um Symmetrie, die Handlungsfähigkeit nicht-menschlicher Akteure sowie die Verteilung von Macht in Netzwerken. Dabei werden Möglichkeiten und Grenzen der Akteu…
Unbuttoning Normalcy - On Cosmopolitical Events
The history of social research can be read as a critical endeavour inasmuch as it unbuttons the normalcy of collective action by multiplying relevant actors and the imaginaries of social reality. I show how paying close sociological attention to what I call cosmopolitical events, offers one approach to such a conception of critical social science. In the paper, I explore the effects of the Japanese events at the Fukushima nuclear plant to unfold …

The Danube and Ways of Imagining Europe
This paper is concerned with the River Danube as a European object that articulates forms of relations which, by linking human and non-humans in highly specific ways, create actor-networks that dispute common societal divisions and (b)orders. By discussing the contested social relevance of the River Danube, this paper visualizes different ways of imagining Europe. Following some of the controversies concerning the River Danube, we outline a proce…

Heymann, Leiter der Abteilung Emerging and other Communicable Diseasesder World Health Organization(WHO), das spezifische Risiko- und Gefahrenpotential d…
Care and the Art of Dwelling
Moving Homes
This article argues that home relates not so much to a fixed and clearly bounded spatial “being” but can be understood as a “becoming,” that is, a set of spatial and temporal practices and experiences that fabricate the (un-)canniness of what it means to be at home or not. The (un-)canniness of being at home refers to the mediating and altering relations of changing bodies, emotions, and things that enact the specificities that make up the very f…
The social, cosmopolitanism and beyond
First, this article will outline the metaphysics of "the social" that implicitly and explicitly connects the work of classical and contemporary cosmopolitan sociologists as different as Durkheim, Weber, Beck and Luhmann. In a second step, I will show that the cosmopolitan outlook of classical sociology is driven by exclusive differences. In understanding human affairs, both classical sociology and contemporary cosmopolitan sociology reflect a ver…
(Visual) Disability – from exclusive perspectives to inclusive differences
By introducing the concept ‘inclusive differences’ of disability this paper suggests that disability is the outcome of historically specific, embodied human and non‐human configurations fabricated within the conduct of everyday life. Inclusive differences question the attempt given by exclusive perspectives that try to divide analytically, conceptually or politically ‘disability’ a priori into an individual (natural) bodily impairment or a purely…
Globalizing Risks - The Cosmo-Politics of Sars and its Impact on Globalizing Sociology
The outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) in China 2003 endangered individual lives and disrupted societal organization on a trans-continental level. SARS was rapidly spreading along the international routes of air traffic and therefore was not only treated as a trans-regionally spread disease but was feared it would become a pandemic threat, i.e. a global epidemic. Drawing on empirical material, the Canadian experience is given sp…
Actor-Networks of Dementia
Time-Spaces of In/dependence and Dis/ability
The article highlights the temporal construction of everyday spaces that make up the societal relevance of in/dependences and dis/abilities. Employing an account of empirical philosophy, the article links self-conducted empirical research with philosophical ideas. Introducing Heidegger's notion of `time-space', the proposed view tries to avoid bifurcating in/dependences and dis/abilities a priori as the effect of given realities. Rather, they app…

Dis/Abling Practices
Dis/Abling Practices: Rethinking Disability The paper discusses how ordinary acts of everyday life make up the complex and contingent scenarios of disabilities that create enabling and disabling (dis/abling) practices. Drawing on qualitative empirical data the societal visibility and relevance of dis/abling practices are analyzed by connecting disability studies and sociological ideas with insights from Science and Technology Studies (STS). The e…
Dis/Abling Spaces of Calculation
In this paper I attempt to explore how 'ordinary acts' of dealing with money and with money technologies fabricate enabling and disabling-dis/abling-spaces of calculation. Rather than referring to money merely as a general symbolic medium of exchange, I highlight the materiality and the sensory practices involved in handling money and shaping the practice of sociality. Drawing on empirical material, I explicate some of the ways in which everyday …
Othering blindness – on modern epistemological politics
Since the 17th century, the ‘blind restored to light’ has become a relevant epistemological figure attracting philosophical, scientific, medical and pedagogical attention. Drawing on a key text of modernity, John Locke’s An Essay Concerning Human Understanding (1690/1991 Locke, J. 1991. An essay concerning human understanding. An abridgement, London: Dent & Sons. (selected by J. Y. Yolton) (Original work published 1706). [Google Scholar]), this p…
