AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'This paper argues that narrative theory and the political theory of assemblage complement each other in ways that can both illuminate and contribute to political struggle. Assemblage thinking points to complex, catalytic interactions that might open further lines of inquiry to key aspects of narrative analysis, such as meta-narrative, heteroglossia and collectivisation of memory. In turn, narrative theory offers the prospect of further elaborating the key processes by which human social assemblages are composed and decomposed and thus filling some of the critical ‘silences and absences’ (Anderson et al. 2012: 212) of assemblage theory.' (Publication abstract)

    'As we were proofreading this introduction, the new(ish) Prime Minister of Australia, Scott Morrison, responded to the warnings of a special report by the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change by defending the Australian coal industry (Hannam & Latimer 2018). In reference to the Green Climate Fund, set up by the nations that make up the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) in support of developing nations responding to climate change, Morrison added, ‘Nor are we bound to go and tip money into that big climate fund. We’re not going to do that either. I’m not going to spend money on global climate conferences and all that nonsense’ (Karp 2018).' (Patrick Allington, Piri Eddy and Melanie Pryor : Introduction)
