The Precarious Economies working group engaged the University of
Nevada Reno’s (UNR) Campus Master Plan (CMP) from the
perspective of precarity—broadly understood as material
conditions of vulnerability that threaten living bodies and are
outside of one’s control. Employing traditional and in situ
methods of rhetorical analysis and fieldwork, we investigated how
the creative destruction of Reno’s emerging technology economy
implicates people within precarity frames through facets of daily
living including labor, housing, and transportation. Our mixed
approaches allowed us to search for the material impacts of
capitalism’s development on the lives of Reno’s residents and see
the CMP’s (re)distribution of precarity as a symptom of
capitalism’s creative destruction. In this essay, we describe the
methods of our research and reflect on what the hybrid research approach of the working group teaches us about UNR/Reno and
the contemporary function of capitalism.
