Editorial: Even where nothing seems to be happening, the movement continues

Abstract

Movement is language. It is found in "perreo", where the body negotiates power, desire, and identity. It is found in science, when chaos ceases to be mere disorder and is recognized as a complex form of organization. It is found in life itself, where moving—that is, breathing, walking, and persisting—constitutes a condition of existence. Yet not all movement is progress. There are forced displacements, spreading crises, and systems that accelerate until they break. Understanding movement, then, entails embracing its ambivalence: its capacity to create and to destabilize.
