Doing Hope in Troubled Times
Abstract
ABSTRACT In this paper, hope is critically considered within the context of the persistent impact of colonisation, neoliberalism and rising fascism. The following question is asked: In these troubling times, can we, and should we, hope? The urgent case for hope is then made, before a more systemic, relational, decolonised hope is proposed as a viable way of doing hope together.
