"Working with Foucault’s and Butler’s theorisation of the norm
and the political possibilities that may be created when norms are disrupted and Foucault’s and Gibson-Graham’s work on ethics and subjectivities, this paper focuses on practices of property and nature when land in the Outer Hebrides is brought into community ownership. I argue that, while it is early to assess new political possibilities, there is sufficient evidence to show how a troubling of neoliberal norms of privatisation and enclosure through community land ownership provides a moment where a counterdiscourse is constituted. This counter narrative, centred on a collective subjectivity, opens up the possibility of more socially just and sustainable futures." |
