Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
This paper illustrates the findings of an ethnographic research conducted in Casablanca (Morocco) between 2016 and 2017. The aim is to shed light on waste circulation between the main social actors of the analysed cultural scenario: informal waste-pickers, wholesalers and institutions. By de-constructing the garbage collectors’ single-narration, I will propose a fluid description of their agency, in a constant tension with the institutions that dominate waste-governance processes. The focus on the socio-material interactions will lead me towards a repositioning on the very notions of informality and waste, both interpreted as driving resources of sharing processes between people, places and objects, in a local scenario where the complementarity between official and unofficial practices will stand out.
