Purpose

The archives gathered in this collection engage in the current COVID-19 moment. They do so in order to attempt to understand it, to think and feel with others and to create a collectivity that, beyond the slogan “we are in this together”, seriously contemplates the implications of what it means to be given an opportunity to alter the course of history, to begin to learn to live and educate otherwise.

Design/methodology/approach

This paper is collectively written by twelve academics in March 2020, a few weeks into the first closing down of common spaces in 2020, Victoria, Australia. Writing through and against “social isolation”, the twelve quarantine archives in this paper are all at once questions, methods, data, analysis, implications and limitations of these pandemic times and their afterlives.

Findings

These quarantine archives reveal a profound sense of dislocation, relatability and concern. Several of the findings in this piece succeed at failing to explain in generalising terms these un-new upending times and, in the process, raise more questions and propose un-named methodologies.

Originality/value

If there is anything this paper could claim as original, it would be its present ability to respond to the current times as a historical moment of intensity. At times when “isolation”, “self” and “contained” are the common terms of reference, the “collective”, “connected” and “socially engaged” nature of this paper defies those very terms. Finally, the socially transformative desire archived in each of the pieces is a form of future history-making that resists the straight order with which history is often written and made.

隔离档案：“社会隔离”中的教育者

目的

此收藏中收集的档案涉及当前的COVID-19时刻。他们这样做是为了试图理解它，与他人思考和感受，并创建一个集体，除了口号“我们在一起”之外，还认真地考虑了给予改变机会意味着什么的含义。在历史的过程中，要开始学习生活和其他方面的教育。

设计/方法/方法

这篇论文是由2020年3月的12位学者共同撰写的，距2020年澳大利亚维多利亚州首次关闭公共场所几周。贯穿并反对“社会隔离”，本文中的十二个隔离档案完全是这些大流行时期及其后世的问题，方法，数据，分析，含义和局限性。

发现

这些隔离档案显示出一种深刻的错位，相关性和关注感。本文中的一些发现未能成功地概括性地解释这些新的颠覆性时期，并在此过程中提出了更多问题，并提出了未命名的方法论。

创意/价值

如果本文有什么可以声称是原创的，那它将是它当前对当前时代做出回应的能力，这是一个历史性的瞬间。有时，“隔离”，“自我”和“包含”是常见的职责范围，而本文的“集体”，“联系”和“社会参与”性质则反驳了这些术语。最后，保存在每篇文章中的具有社会变革意义的欲望是未来历史创造的一种形式，它抵制了经常书写和制造历史的直截了当的秩序。
