Timescapes of Waiting: Spaces of Stasis, Delay and Deferral

Timescapes of Waiting explores the intersections of temporality and space by examining various manifestations of spatial (im-)mobility. The individual articles approach these spaces from a variety of academic perspectives - including the realms of history, architecture, law and literary and cultural studies - in order to probe the fluid relationships between power, time and space.

The contributors offer discussion and analysis of waiting spaces like ante-chambers, prisons, hospitals, and refugee camps, and also of more elusive spaces such as communities and nation-states.

Contributors: Olaf Berwald, Elise Brault-Dreux, Richard Hardack, Kerstin Howaldt, Robin Kellermann, Amanda Lagji, Margaret Olin, Helmut Puff, Katrin Roeder, Christoph Singer, Cornelia Wachter, Robert Wirth.
