Revealing violence in the structure of sociotechnical systems theory
This article revisits the Tavistock Institute of Human Relation’s (TIHR) contribution to the field of Organisation Studies (OS) in the post-World War II era: Sociotechnical Systems (STS) Theory. Although the concept ‘sociotechnical’ was born out of TIHR’s coal mine studies in Britain in the post-War era, the empirical focus for this paper is the ‘Ahmedabad Experiment’—TIHR’s consultancy work in the weaving sheds of Calico Mills in India (1953–196…

Kṛtajñatā – Rediscovering Gratitude Through Indian Wisdom
The study examines gratitude from an Indian traditional wisdom, specifically delving into the notion of Kṛtaj ñatā (a Sanskrit term for gratitude). The study of gratitude is predominantly approached from a Western perspective, nevertheless, indigenous research has the capacity to introduce novel concepts and enrich comprehension of many phenomena. The primary aim of this work is to explore Kṛtajñatā and provide a culturally nuanced comprehension …
Decoding Gratitude at Work
The concept of gratitude within workplace settings has been extensively examined in Western organisational behaviour studies; nonetheless, the cultural nuances of gratitude have yet to be thoroughly theorised. This conceptual paper presents and examines kRtajJatA, an indigenous rather Bhartiya construct of gratitude, as a distinctive framework for understanding employee attitudes and behaviours within Indian organisational contexts. Grounded in t…
“The Covid-19 pandemic in BRICS
Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa (BRICS) are a group of developing countries with shared economic, healthcare, and scientific interests. These countries navigate multiple syndemics, and the COVID-19 pandemic placed severe strain on already burdened BRICS’ healthcare systems, hampering effective pandemic interventions. Genomic surveillance and molecular epidemiology remain indispensable tools for facilitating informed pandemic interv…
De l’imaginaire des retombées au Bunker Bildungsroman
En utilisant deux concepts issus des œuvres de Tarkovskij et d’Aleksievič (Stalker et La Supplication. Tchernobyl, chronique du monde après l’apocalypse), celui de réduction d’échelle du nucléaire en termes à la fois spatiaux et temporels, et celui de fiction contaminée, cet article étudie le phénomène Métro 2033. À travers les structures et les capacités des narrations transmédiatiques, Métro 2033 transforme l’imaginaire des retombées en un réci…
Green Walls
QAnon's rallying cry of “the storm” on January 6 and thereafter articulates a structural taxonomy of planetary scale and apocalyptic eschatology that pervades the environmental imaginaries of contemporary fascism. While they become visible only in times of emergency and states of exception, this essay argues that equal attention needs to be paid to expressions and operations of ecofascism in the mundane places and practices of everyday life. Expa…
“Transient Temples”
The land I live and work on has a complicated, multilayered and highly contested socio-cultural footing. “Transient Temples” is a participatory installation in which I attempt to negotiate my identity in context to the complex histories of the land where I have built my new home. This work provoked by the materiality of land emerges from a profusion of personal and invisible forces, influenced by ontological dimensions of materialist and ethical …

I thought you were a Mexican or something
Despite histories that share a deep, wounded sensibility about borders, Mexico and India have relatively few overt meditations on potential parallels. This paper proposes to look at a 2010 Indian action film set in Las Vegas and Mexico featuring Bollywood mega-star Hrithik Roshan and the Mexican-Japanese-Uruguyan telenovela actress Bárbara Mori — who play immigrants of Indian and Mexican descent in the United States. In the film, their star-cross…

Electricity
Through an examination of electricity in early-twentieth-century Russian literature, this essay demonstrates how science fiction provides a crucial discursive site for analyzing the continuity between constructs of technological utopia and concepts of modernity in the pre-Revolutionary and Bolshevik eras. It delineates the process lhrough which peculiarities of technological development in Russia determined the emergence of a particular semiotic …
