  Excess, Leftover and innovation

  Remainders and the way they are dealt with are a productive social sciences heuristic. Or so we argue in this special issue, published in partnership with Marseille's "Musée des Civilisations de l’Europe et de la Méditerranée" (MuCEM), where an exhibition on waste is being prepared for 2016. Incorporating the subject of waste but casting a much wider net, this special issue will gather together contributions, from multiple disciplines and fieldsites, around the topic of "remainders", conceived of not only as 'obverse of production' but also in their crucial semiotic and symbolic dimensions.
