This project aims to examine writers' enduring engagement with the riot's destructive energy and its transformative potential. Riots have become a familiar feature of an increasingly volatile global politics, but contemporary responses to these events have a long history across a range of media and modes of writing. Literary writers have historically struggled in the aftermath of riots to make sense of and communicate the collective trauma felt by families and communities who suffer resulting injury, death, homelessness or unemployment. Drawing together writing from Britain, United States of America, Australia and the Middle-East, this project will provide an understanding of the resurgence of the riot in a contemporary global context.

这个项目旨在考察作家对暴乱的破坏性能量及其变革潜力的持久参与。骚乱已经成为日益动荡的全球政治的一个常见特征，但当代对这些事件的反应在一系列媒体和写作模式中有着悠久的历史。历史上，文学作家在骚乱之后一直在努力理解和传达遭受伤害、死亡、无家可归或失业的家庭和社区所感受到的集体创伤。汇集了来自英国、美国、澳大利亚和中东的作品，这个项目将提供对当代全球背景下暴乱死死的理解。
