Prompt 11/14: Golumbia et al., “Neoliberal Tools”

¶ 1 Leave a comment on paragraph 1 0 By now, the narrative that authors David Golumbia, Sarah Brouillette, and Daniel Allington are telling in this essay ought to be familiar, for the very reason that it is the narrative — or, at least, one version of the narrative — that we have been studying all throughout this semester. Given that familiarity, what do you judge to be the accuracy of these authors’ take on that narrative? Do they portray a factual history of DH’s rise as a discipline, and are they warranted in the fears and anxieties that they attach to that rise? Does their essay reflect and describe DH accurately? Why or why not, in your opinion?
