Where crises converge:The affective register of displacement in Mexico City’s post-earthquake gentrification
Full text linkAffect theory suggests that imagining different futures for cities begins by feeling the present differently. This article considers the political potential of the affective register in the context of gentrifying Mexico City, where the 2017 earthquake, as a crisis-event, burst onto the ongoing crisis-ordinary of gentrification-based displacement. I argue that this convergence of crises opened an affective impasse, or a time and space lived in excess of predictability. This affective impasse both interrupted business-as-usual gentrification and channeled historical affects across 32 years from the 1985 earthquake, and in turn generated new political energies. Informed by affect theory and trauma studies, I use qualitative data to invite the reader into the impasse and observe its affective dynamics. The empirical sections describe the entry points to the impasse, the affective activities that subjects engage in there, and the role of historical trauma in reshaping the atmospheres that emerge from this space. The resulting research investigates how affective ways of navigating an impasse offer the potential to reshape ongoing struggles against displacement. This builds on recent work in urban geography that uses psychoanalysis and affect theory to understand gentrification’s complexities, contradictions, and ambivalences
Inhabiting the impasse: Social exclusion through visible assemblage in neighborhood gentrification
No full textNow that gentrification has taken hold in central Cincinnati and begun to spill outward, nearby neighborhoods in the early stages of gentrification have begun to call for “inclusive redevelopment” to bring vibrancy to depressed neighborhoods without displacing long-term residents. Neighborhood leaders and city officials understand that displacement happens along racial and class lines, yet efforts to directly address this issue have not changed displacement patterns. Research shows social exclusion contributes to displacement in gentrifying neighborhoods, and tends to focus on uneven impact across social categories like race and class, but there is much less attention to how exclusion is enacted and these categories reproduced. I argue that this takes place simultaneously in the intimate space and time of everyday encounters, where proximity and relation unfold affectively through things and people to code them anew, pulling some into the momentum of redevelopment, while pushing others aside. This cognitive reversal of how categories work is important because it relocates their origin in small, interstitial, and nonhuman sites. Pairing assemblage theory and posthumanism with interviews and field notes, I demonstrate the role of nonhuman forces in shaping these encounters; how materials like cheese, pint glasses, trash, beards, and liver & onions play marked roles in producing marginalization. My findings show that things and people compose visible assemblages together, like a group of people sitting at a sidewalk table eating pizza and drinking beer. These assemblages are operative in producing and reinforcing social exclusion: they usher practiced bias through the surface aesthetics of the assorted components, enabling affective atmospheres to prescribe outcomes. These emergent, visible assemblages are thus important sites for intervention into processes of social exclusion leading to displacement

PENINGKATAN AKTIVITAS BELAJAR SISWA MELALUI METODE PICTURE AND PICTURE
Full text linkBased on the experience and observation of the author about the condition in SMP Negeri 2 Pariangan class VII 1 in the school year 2016 – 2017, students seemed less involved in the learning process. This was because the method of learning used by teachers that have not varied so as not interesting for students. This study aimed to determine whether the use of picture and picture method could improve student learning activities in class VII.1 SMPN 2 Pariangan Tanah Datar. This research was conducted through Classroom Action Research which was conducted in 2 cycles. The results of this study indicated that the use of Picture and Picture method was able to improve student learning activities. This could be seen from the average of student activity reaching 84% in learning which previously only at 52%.Based on the experience and observation of the author about the condition in SMP Negeri 2 Pariangan class VII 1 in the school year 2016 – 2017, students seemed less involved in the learning process.
