What might it mean to follow failure ‘out into the world’ (Alexander, introduction to this volume) in a way that is attentive both to its contingent and diffuse effects, and to the work involved in making it socially legible? This essay follows a moment of social breakdown, its reverberations in social life, and the forms of diagnosis it elicited as a way of exploring the double social life of failure. Focusing on the aftermath of Kyrgyzstan's 2010 ‘Osh events’ (Oshskie sobytiia) as they took hold in a multi-tenant and ethnically mixed dormitory apartment for migrant workers in Moscow, I follow failure forwards, exploring how a period of intercommunal violence reverberated in a context of protracted work migration, legal non-recognition, and the digital circulation of blame. I also track it backwards, attending to my interlocutors’ practices of diagnosis and excavation. Among Kyrgyz and Uzbeks in Moscow, the Osh events figured as indexical of different kinds of failure – whether of protection, recognition, or proper state care. I take vernacular diagnoses of bardak – normative breakdown – as an ethnographic entry point for thinking about the spatial and temporal afterlives of violence, their articulation in an age of digital mediation, and the ethics of naming and diagnosing failure.

论失败的双重社会生活

以一种关注其偶然和扩散影响的方式关注失败“走向世界”（亚历山大，本卷的介绍），并关注为使其在社​​会上易于阅读所涉及的工作，这可能意味着什么？这篇文章讲述了一个社会崩溃的时刻，它在社会生活中的反响，以及它引发的诊断形式，作为探索失败的双重社会生活的一种方式。关注吉尔吉斯斯坦 2010 年“奥什事件”的后果 ( Oshskie sobytiia) 当他们在莫斯科的移民工人多租户和种族混合宿舍公寓中占据一席之地时，我跟随失败前进，探索一段时期的社区间暴力如何在长期的工作移民、合法的不承认和数字化的背景下产生反响循环怪。我也向后追溯，关注我的对话者的诊断和挖掘实践。在莫斯科的吉尔吉斯人和乌兹别克人中，奥什事件被认为是各种失败的标志——无论是保护、承认还是适当的国家关怀。我将bardak的白话诊断 ——规范崩溃——作为思考暴力的空间和时间来世、它们在数字调解时代的表达以及命名和诊断失败的伦理学的民族志切入点。
