    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Short description:

    Crisis is not just a situation twisting normality but can become constitutive of normality itself. In exploring transformative and constructive elements to being in crisis, it resituates crisis in everyday life to foster critical and nuanced examination of discourses on and experiences of it.

    Long description:

    The world is increasingly influenced by ongoing crises, or at least this is what mainstream media and politics wants us to believe. As is shown here, a crisis most often comes in the form of situations challenging a sense of normality, such as with violent conflicts, pandemics, or forced migration. However, crisis is not just a situation twisting normality but can become constitutive of normality itself. In exploring transformative and constructive elements to being in crisis, this volume resituates the view on crisis in everyday life to foster critical and nuanced examination of discourses on and experiences of it.
