Para collaborative Writing: Introduction to the Special Issue, ‘Collaborative Writing as Inquiry, Now and Beyond’
In what follows, the authors offer a performative instance of collaborative writing. They write between themselves, with the contributors to this issue, and with others. The authors (re)turn to the relational, to the somewhat messy practices that have shaped the field and in turn have shaped their thinking and practice. The articles in this collection speak of urgent, activist, disruptive, radical, human and more-than-human relationality. In ligh…
Arriving at Collaborative Writing: Meeting and Holding a Gaze
This paper is the child of a community where brave hearts and souls chose to come together, and have conversations of a provocative nature. We are a community of students and staff who come together to think about how to be together in difference and in true, deep and right relationship with each other inside the troubling container of an old British university. Five of us, (now four) chose to explore the question of how we might think through th…
Navel-Gazing Breaks the Heart Open: Autoethnography as Love-in-Action
This article is an autoethnography as love-in-action in uncertain times. It is an autoethnography that writes into the complicated relationship that I have with my tummy. Through my tummy, I revisit the age-old and tired argument that autoethnography is navel-gazing and narcissistic. I return here because my therapist-self is still contesting that navel-gazing and narcissism are not the same thing and so shouldn’t be coupled together in the criti…
Spin and Surrender: Letting go as a Mode of Resistance
During spin class, the author of this paper thinks into her resistance to letting go of her marriage. She finds herself thinking about a politics of surrender that is not necessarily the opposite of resistance but rather a necessary precondition to a particular quality of resistance that has the potential to lead to a more expansive and inclusive activism. As she looks around the class, and falls into rhythm with those around her, she realized th…
Qualitative Inquiry, Activism, the Academy, and the Infinite Game: An Introduction to the Special Issue
This is the first of two special issues on qualitative inquiry as activism. This first issue focuses upon activism and/in the academy (academic work, academic cultures, academic practices, etc.), the second on activism in the processes of research itself and activism beyond the academy, in the world. Two issues with different themes, but the overlaps and conversations between them are both obvious and significant: inquiry is part of, rooted in, t…
‘Already Given Over’: Activism in Inquiry and in the World
This is the second of two part-issues on qualitative inquiry as activism. The first focused upon activism and/in the academy (academic work, academic cultures, academic practices, etc.), and this second focuses upon activism in the processes of research itself and activism beyond the academy, in the world. Drawing upon Butler’s claim that we are always already, from the outset, ‘given over’ to the human, non-human and more-than-human other, we ar…
Introduction to the Special Issue-Deleuze and Intimacy: Of Ontologies, Politics, and the Untamed
This brief article traces the intersecting lines and stories of this special issue on Deleuze and intimacy. It offers a take how it found its way onto these pages after nearly 2 years and through two conference symposia, and outlines how the contributions-variously and differently-make a case for intimacy, through Deleuze, as an approach to, a subject of, and/or a necessary and vital affective force in, research-and beyond
Searching for Intimacy, Searching for Deleuze
In this article, the author is in Paris searching for Gilles Deleuze. She wants to become more intimate with him, spending slow time exploring his work. In her search for intimacy with Deleuze, she follows a map that she buys at a bouquiniste, and she chooses to take the roads toward an ontological conception of love, to an intimacy that blurs boundaries between public and private and between love and politics. Through this exploration, she devel…
The Emergencies of Creative-Relational Inquiry
This essay is written in response to the emergence (or emergencies) of creative-relational inquiry, and in the writing and with the theory, thought thinks through what such inquiry can do, will do, strives to do, and must do
Between Brexit and Trump: Looking at the Stain on the Floor
This article asks how leaders emerge out of moments and movements of whiteness. It asks how we sit with, endure through, or protest against the new values that are created as we tumble into the interstices of this political space. This article, based on the author's assumptions and imaginations about a postgraduate student's silence in class discussion, explores possibilities of finding new modes of participation in class and therefore in democra…
Double-Sided Tape
This essay brings together Amazon, consumer reviews, a science project, and ordinary objects in order to examine how affect works between and within them, both sticking them together and tearing them apart. This is a sticky tale with a speedy delivery
Ousted by Oedipus
This story migrates through the cracks of enclosures that are built in reactive resistance to the movement of what is always already there. Turbulence drops the author in divergent times and spaces as she seeks to find ways of being with others, forming emergent collectivities in the wild, after having been ousted by Oedipus. But as the author tries in vain to enclose meaning in the movement, she learns there is value in dispossession
