AA Files is the Architectural Association's journal of record and offers a platform for exchange
connecting the research produced by the AA community to a larger architectural debate globally.
Organised in a series of thematic sections that emerged from the AA Files Issue 76 Glossary,
each 'file' contains two or more contributions that explore a common keyword constructing a
dialogue between a heterogeneous set of authors with the aim to reframe architecture as a critical
point of entry through which the most urgent social and environmental questions of today can be
addressed. In Issue 77, the themes are Body, Care, Economy, Environment, Labour, Project and
Resistance. A special feature 'file' on Home gathers ten perspectives on domestic living during
lockdown from Mexico City to Teheran, while ARO (Allies Against Discrimination and Disparity)
writes on four keywords that have been added to our AA Files Glossary: Afrofuturism, Exile, Third
Space and Transience.
