This volume explores political culture, especially the catastrophic
elements of the global social order emerging in the twenty-first
century. By emphasizing the texture of political action, the book
theorizes how social context becomes evident on the surface of
events and analyzes the performative dimensions of political
experience. The attention to catastrophe allows for an
understanding of how ordinary people contend with normal system
operation once it is indistinguishable from system breakdown.
Through an array of case studies, the book provides an account of
change as it is experienced, negotiated, and resisted in specific
settings that define a society's capacity for political action.
