Precarious living in the age of precision medicine
Owing in large part to the rise of precision medicine, cancers that were once considered ‘terminal’ now often entail long-term treatability alongside ongoing incurability. The resulting chronic malignancy is fundamentally reconfiguring the meaning and experience of living with cancer and – we argue – illustrates some of the key features of precarious living, more generally. Drawing on 132 in-depth interviews and building from Lauren Berlant’s ide…
Towards a Healthcare−Education−Migration Nexus
Healthcare worker migration and international student migration have received extensive attention in public, political and scholarly discourse. The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted Australia's fraught relationship with students and healthcare workers from overseas and these tensions persist. Despite these parallel tracks of concern, the connections between healthcare and education migration have been underexplored. Building on Robertson's ‘education…
Owning Home, Finding Belonging
Migrant healthcare workers in Australia find themselves at the centre of three intersecting concerns, often presented as ‘crises’ in contemporary discourse: the ‘care crisis’, the ‘housing crisis’ and the ‘migration crisis.’ Yet their own perspectives on these issues are rarely foregrounded. This paper explores the role of homeownership in the lives of migrant healthcare workers in Australia. Drawing on data from in‐depth interviews with 37 overs…
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 …
Future/tense
The last few years of pandemic living have highlighted various temporal tensions that characterise our individual and collective futures. In some ways, the scale of temporal disruption caused by the pandemic could be considered unprecedented. But in other ways, the temporal tensions that underpin social life are long-standing, even routine. In this special issue, ‘Future/Tense: A Sociology of Temporal Dis/Order’, we take the intensification of te…
The (Anti)Microbial Gaze
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a rapidly escalating global health threat, known increasingly through different forms of monitoring. Surveillance, both of resistant organisms and of the antimicrobial prescribing practices that contribute to their proliferation, has increased dramatically over the last decade. So too have audits, which are routinely deployed to evaluate, and ensure accountability for, the alignment of local prescribing practices…
It's very hard to have a future when you can't travel
Being diagnosed with a life-limiting illness entails a fundamental reshaping of one's relationship with the future. From 'bucket lists' of destinations and experiences to 'flights of hope' for experimental or specialised medical care, diagnoses of serious illness are deeply entwined with travel in Australian cultural narratives. In this paper, we draw on a thematic analysis of interviews with cancer patients and their carers to ask what meanings …
You're on your own, kid
Mental ill‐health is a serious and growing problem among university students in Australia. Within this cohort, international students are particularly vulnerable. International students in Australia have fewer social rights than domestic students and are at elevated risk of social isolation, exploitation in employment, precarious housing, financial insecurity, and racism and discrimination. When mental health challenges arise, international stude…
The state of the discipline
Debates about the state of Australian sociology have raged for as long as sociology has existed in Australia. Concerns about the discipline's future may be inevitable for a critical, reflexive discipline, but to those entering the discipline, it is neither instructive nor productive to be subjected to lingering disciplinary anxieties. After more than fifty years, it is time to take stock of the differing visions of sociology, and examine the argu…
Paradoxes of pandemic infection control
From the adoption of mask-wearing in public settings to the omnipresence of hand-sanitising, the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has brought unprecedented cultural attention to infection prevention and control (IPC) in everyday life. At the same time, the pandemic threat has enlivened and unsettled hospital IPC processes, fracturing confidence, demanding new forms of evidence, and ultimately involving a rapid reassembling of what constitutes safe care. Here,…
Living (well) with cancer in the precision era
Surviving cancer in the precision era of targeted drugs and immunotherapies increasingly involves surviving-with malignancy. Against this backdrop of precision, innovation and chronicity, this paper offers a person-centred examination of some of the emerging intersections of chronic living and cancer treatment. Using a temporally extended qualitative methodology drawing on solicited diaries and successive in-depth interviews with people receiving…
Migrant mothers and the ambivalence of co-ethnicity in online communities
Since the advent of digital and mobile communication technologies, scholars have been investigating how these technologies are changing experiences of migration and mobility. In the field of gender and migration, researchers have shown how the experience of migration can change maternal practices, and alter understandings of ‘good motherhood’. These ‘digital migrant’ and ‘migrant motherhood’ literatures have intersected in studies of technologica…
Migrant Mothers in the Digital Age
This book explores the experiences of migrant mothers through the lens of the online communities they have created and participate in. Examining the ways in which migrant mothers build relationships with each other through these online communities and find ways to make a place for themselves and their families in a new country, it highlights the often overlooked labour that goes into sustaining these groups and facilitating these new relationship…
Entanglements of affect, space, and evidence in pandemic healthcare
Removing the Mask
Facebook groups are spaces where women form communities and share their lived experiences. These peer-created and peer-moderated groups have 'closed' security settings, indicating that interactions within the group are to be considered private. They attract membership from women who desire safe, 'trusted', gender-specific spaces, though as this article demonstrates, these perceived 'safe spaces' are often fraught with difficulties. This article c…
Personhood, belonging, affect and affliction
What does migrancy mean for personhood, and how does this flow through caring relations? Drawing on life history interviews and photo elicitation with 43 people who identify as migrants and live with cancer, here we argue for the significance of recognising complex personhood as it inflects illness and care. Drawing on social science theory around temporalities, moralities and belonging, we assemble a series of cross-cutting themes at the interse…
