How the Light Gets In: A Theoretical Framework for “Ordinary Agency” -- 2. Encountering Middleborough: Impressions, Methods, and Tacit Knowledge -- 3. Meeting the Families -- 4. Spontaneity -- 5. Anticipation and the Mother-Multiple -- 6. “Family Time” and Domestic Sociality: Forms of Togetherness and Independence with Digital Media -- 7. Saving Energy in British Homes: Thoughts and Applications. .This book challenges the ways we think about human agency by looking at the creativity, ethics, and capacities for social transformation that are embedded in simple actions of “doing”. Stemming from ethnographic research with families in the United Kingdom as part of a wider interdisciplinary project looking at domestic energy demand, this book probes some mundane approaches to time—such as spontaneity, anticipation, and “family time”—and the ways in which they extend ethical imaginations, create new forms of sociality, and engender human agency.Palgrave Studies in Anthropology of SustainabilityEthnographyAnthropologyEthnographyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X12060Anthropologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X12000Great BritainfastGrossbritanniengndEthnography.Anthropology.Ethnography.Anthropology.302.231Moroşanu Roxanaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1062121BOOK9910253349303321An Ethnography of Household Energy Demand in the UK2523052UNINA
