Description:
Contemporary craft, art and design are inseparable from the flows of production and consumption under global capitalism. The New Politics of the Handmade features twenty-three voices who critically rethink the handmade in this dramatically shifting economy.


The authors examine craft within the conditions of extreme material and economic disparity; a renewed focus on labour and materiality in contemporary art and museums; the political dimensions of craftivism, neoliberalism, and state power; efforts toward urban renewal and sustainability; the use of digital technologies; and craft's connections to race, cultural identity and sovereignty in texts that criss-cross five continents. They claim contemporary craft as a dynamic critical position for understanding the most immediate political and aesthetic issues of our time.

Comfortable toeless socks
Very soft and comfortable. However, the elastic is too tight. Should be wider so circulation is not cut and you are able to wear it at night. Therefore, is not good for diabetic and heavier people. Larger sizes should be available.

Socks
They fit okay and they're comfortable but the only problem I've been seeing is that they're starting to unravel at the toe end
