Accounting for Death
Death is a highly and increasingly economised process in which individual, family, institutional and state finances play important, but often opaque, roles in shaping the contours of dying. Drawing on 44 in-depth interviews with people who are dying, their family and their healthcare providers, this article explores how economic rationalities profoundly shape almost every dimension of their experiences of the end of life. Circulating within this …

Tensions of time at the end (of life)
Perhaps the most valuable asset in our cultural imaginary is time. Yet, this notion of time-as-asset intensifies, is contested, and is often derailed at the end of life. When faced with death, time can become many things, including both personal and interpersonal asset and liability. Bringing the concept of time and dying into focus, this paper draws on qualitative interviews with 15 people nearing death in an Australian specialist palliative car…
Dying as a Collective Encounter
The end of life is replete with relational complexities. Yet, despite the work of humanities and social science scholars in the field of death and dying, our final days and weeks are still often framed through a highly individualistic lens. As a result, the collective encounters of dying can become sidelined within the management of an individual's embodied journey. This, in some cases, has the effect of obscuring the presence and power of collec…
Small Chemicals of Trauma
In Australia, some Indigenous and non-Indigenous scientists, health workers, psychologists, and others have identified a resonance between epigenetics and Indigenous scholarship on intergenerational trauma. Epigenetics is a postgenomic science that seeks to demonstrate how environments can "get under the skin" to shape health outcomes by altering gene expression. Intergenerational trauma is a similar concept, as it describes how past harms such a…
Epigenetic science and Indigenous health
Environmental epigenetics is a fast-growing field of scientific research attracting interest from key stakeholders in Indigenous health internationally, including researchers, clinicians, policymakers, and advocacy organisations. It is the study of how various external factors, including food, stress, and toxins, alter genetic expression, and could be biologically passed down to children (and potentially grandchildren). This article explores the …
Refusing epigenetics
Circuits of Time
Some Indigenous Australians have embraced developmental origins of health and disease (DOHaD) and epigenetic discourses to highlight the legacies of slow violence in a settler colonial context. Despite important differences between Indigenous and scientific knowledges, some Indigenous scholars are positioning DOHaD and epigenetics as a resource to benefit their communities. This article argues that time plays a crucial role of brokering disparate…
