Abstract
- The article titled "Unsettling Archival Research: Engaging Critical, Communal, and Digital Archives" is a book review of a collection that challenges traditional approaches to archival studies. It emphasizes disruption and instability in order to address wounded spaces, places, and memories. The collection includes diverse perspectives and evidentiary practices, such as institutional and community archives, oral histories, and interviews. The review highlights specific chapters that question key concepts in archival studies and offers alternative characterizations and methodologies. María Pas Carvajal Regidor's article "En) Countering Archival Silences: Critical Lenses, Relationships, and Informal Archives" focuses on the importance of informal archives in critical race theory and the need for critical archival perspectives on prison archives and marginalized histories. The collection as a whole provides alternative approaches to archival research and addresses ongoing social issues. [Extracted from the article]
