Imaginaries of Svalbard, Interdisciplinary Research and Fieldwork: Where Emergent Knowledge Surges

Zhang, Jasmine

Abstract

Jasmine Zhang looks at the ‘effects and affects that imaginaries bring in the form of interrelationships and entanglements, rather than answering any question on imaginaries per se through a descriptive approach’. This implies not treating imaginaries as an object of study, but rather using them as a ‘productive site’ for analysing the subjective experiences of a visitor (in this case, the researcher as visitor).
