Altered social relations in culture - Tools for conviviality

The making of capable activist formations and moving beyond fragments involves altered relations of production in culture. We review the range of such patterns that have emerged historically.

Tools for conviviality is a framework for thinking about and mobilising ways of knowing and organising. Here we develop a perspective on altered relations of cultural production - practices of knowing and capability - in terms of tools for conviviality. We describe the dance of knowing that is part of making a living economy, and the concerns of design justice, stewarding, structures of feeling, and other dynamics of power that are wrapped up in conviviality and its institutions.
