Abstract

This essay offers a reading of current Australian politics by way of the concepts of the uncanny and the oikos, suggesting that both commentaries on the recent Federal election and the politics that were articulated around it might be best understood as that of an oikonomics – and the uncanniness that, in its discrepancy with lived realities, it elicits.
