Resum
This special issue of Canada and Beyond looks into contemporary Canadian cultural production in English through the Butlerian notions of vunerability and precarity. It aims to provide a critical view of the field with an emphasis on the discursive modes that address, critique or produce vulnerability on local and global scales
