Concluding Reflections: Chronopolitics of Academic Research
摘要
The concluding reflections start with unpacking the very notion of the politics of time as developed throughout the book. It points to the widespread technological solutionism, i.e. the introduction of novel time generation when issues appear. In conclusion, two key concepts are introduced: “response-able and sustain-able academic research ecologies” and “temporal care work”. These ideas emphasize the need to view chronopolitics not as isolated interventions or as instances which need micro-repair but as a systemic issue requiring attention—not only for the sake of academic research but for the broader well-being and sustainable development of society as a whole.
