Abstract
Staging National Abjection: Theatre and Politics in Turkey and Its Diasporas is a research
project funded by the European Research Council’s Starting Grants program. Building on
the initial insights of the project, the authors study collaboration as a performative process.
They analyze the promises and risks involved in large-scale collaborative research projects
and how they unfold in the context of Turkish academia and the COVID-19 pandemic. The
authors examine how they manage their responsibilities to fellow members of their research
team, to other members of Turkish academia, to the minoritarian communities they work
with, and to the broader public who funds their research. Finally, they discuss how they
work toward collective care and empowerment while negotiating the demands of globalized
neoliberal academia as well as the oppressive sociopolitical environment in Turkey and
explore the limits of their scholarly and ethical endeavors.
