Keep It Informal: Resisting Power in the Shadows of Systems with Alena Ledeneva
A Hitchhiker’s Guide to Informal Problem-Solving in Human Life,Volume 3 of The Global Encyclopaedia of Informality, UCL Press Fringe Series, 2024.
Can informality be seen as resistance to power and potential for institutional change? Is staying hidden a productive way to accumulate critical resources to transform regimes? Join Professor Alena Ledeneva for a discussion of the “shades of grey” around the globe.
The Global Encyclopaedia of Informality offers a journey into the world’s open secrets, unwritten rules and hidden practices. Its third volume focuses on issues of emotional ambivalence and the pressures of the digital age on humanity. The informal practices presented in this volume demonstrate the urgency of alleviating tensions between continuity and all-too-rapid change and the need to tackle the central problem of modern societies – uncertainty.
