dc.description.abstractLondon's 24/7 rhythms throb with the lives of nocturnal workers. The Sleepless Bats, whose nocturnal lives I have studied are bio-automatons remote from co-operating or from supporting each other in solidarity. Migrant night shift workers do something together but not with each other. Night shift workers survive precariousness because they are immune to co-workers' needs, and not because they offer each other mutual support out of humanity. Through the analytical lens of learned bodily knowledge, the study interrogated the modes of embodiment that over time enhance night workers' social life skills. The becoming of embodied cooperation not only involves routinised, rhythmic practices ingrained in the body through repetitive, physical tasks, but also physical gestures that build social relations among workers who learn to engage meaningfully in dealing with ambiguity, resistance and difference. The relevant aspects of embodied forms of interaction investigated involve workers' trajectories being disrupted from naturally cooperative to socially competitive.en
