Repair, Brokenness, Breakthrough is written by Francisco Martínez and published by Berghahn Books. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 1789203325 (ISBN 10) and 9781789203325 (ISBN 13).
Exploring some of the ways in which repair practices and perceptions of brokenness vary culturally, Repair, Brokenness, Breakthrough argues that repair is both a process and also a consequence which is sought out—an attempt to extend the life of things as well as an answer to failures, gaps, wrongdoings, and leftovers. This volume develops an open-ended combination of empirical and theoretical questions including: What does it mean to claim that something is broken? At what point is something broken repairable? What are the social relationships that take place around repair? And how much tolerance for failure do our societies have?
