Abstract [en]

This special issue explores the holding together of organizations in times and spaces that, due to concerns related to climate change, technological advancements, and geopolitical developments among others, may be called disruptive. These are times marked by instability, uncertainty, and rapid change. With this special issue, a discussion around the meaning of community in these disruptive times and spaces is facilitated, and the articles together bring forward four themes. First, the articles provide insights into how change processes are possible to plan and facilitate but not to control entirely, and that community, therefore, can be both a process for accomplishing the change and a result of the change. Second, the articles highlight the centrality of affect to how change processes unfold, and how important it is, therefore, to acknowledge affect and learn to work with it during a change process. Third, the articles are a reminder about the ethical issues related to change processes, which is particularly sensitive when aiming at organizing for community. Fourth, the importance of including materiality as a crucial actor in organizing for community is brought forward. Together, the articles expand the exploration of organizing around a common object of concern to non-profit organizing efforts.
