Summary, etc. | Using (Un)Sighting as a conceptual framework, this article offers an empirical examination of the reshaping of recycling practices, labour and spaces in two neighbourhoods of Delhi since the implementation of 2016 E-Waste Management Rules. In recent years, urban mining has not only become an environmental and waste management concern but also an opportunity for value creation for industry actors and public authorities. (Un)Sighting focuses on both the visibility and invisibility of material and economic values of electronic components, as well as of the social values created through the trade of e-waste within a politically complex environment marked by societal discrimination and the socio-economic and political marginalisation of Muslim communities. However, instead of being passive victims, e-kabadis actively use their invisibility as a strategy to protect e-scrapwork from police oversight, while also asserting their autonomy in the face of a formalised e-waste management system that seeks to exclude them. They reposition their work as entrepreneurship, distancing scrapwork from a merely survival economy. It is rather a dynamic and complex activity that plays a role in not only generating value but also in transforming both their social and material surroundings and thus deserves to be acknowledged. |

Summary, etc. | En proposant l’(in)visibilisation (Un-sighting) comme cadre conceptuel, cet article présente une analyse empirique des effets consécutifs à la régulation indienne des déchets électroniques de 2016 (E-waste management rules, 2016) sur l’évolution des pratiques de recyclage dans deux quartiers musulmans de e-kabadis de Delhi (spécialisés dans la récupération). Alors que l’exploitation de la mine urbaine recouvre des préoccupations environnementales qui se doublent d’enjeux économiques, grâce à la valorisation des matériaux extraits par les acteurs industriels et les autorités publiques, le concept d’(in)visibilisation permet de souligner les effets paradoxaux des réformes tant en termes de visibilité que d’invisibilité sur les acteurs informels du secteur. L’analyse s’intéresse ainsi au processus d’(in)visibilisation de la valeur, matérielle et économique des composants électroniques, ainsi que sociale, dans des quartiers marqués par la marginalisation socio-économique et politique des communautés musulmanes. Loin d’être de simples victimes, les e-kabadis utilisent stratégiquement leur invisibilité pour se protéger de la surveillance policière, tout en affirmant leur autonomie face à un système officiel de gestion des déchets électroniques qui cherche à les exclure. Ils reconfigurent leur activité comme un acte entrepreneurial, et non plus comme résultant d’une simple logique de survie. L’analyse démontre qu’il s’agit là d’une activité dynamique contribuant non seulement à la création de valeur, mais aussi à la transformation des environnements sociaux et matériels, et qui mérite d’être reconnue. |
