Abstract [en]

While ongoing debates about any field are important to the continued development of that field, this chapter suggests that for the digital humanities, we now need to go beyond day-to-day issues and visionary long-term speech, and focus on the intermediate time perspective. This means coming up with a model that resolves many of the key tensions that currently characterize the field within a given time frame. It is argued that it is not enough to enlarge the tent of digital humanities, reluctantly let in newcomers, or mount alternative movements. Such a model will need to be inclusive and accommodating, allowing for heterogeneity while also being sharp enough to be meaningful. This does not mean breaking with earlier traditions, but taking the need for a new, consolidated platform seriously. Such a platform must have an intellectual and technological foundation, and, arguably, relate to mainstream humanities and the university as a whole, while engaging in intellectual pursuit, technological innovation, building of sustainable infrastructure, and facilitating critical making. It must be built on respect, mutual interest, and, to some extent, compromise. It is argued in this chapter that the only way to achieve this is to think of the digital humanities as an intersectional meeting place and trading zone, allow for engagement with the digital across different modes of engagement, and use infrastructure as a way of channeling resources and articulating an ideational underpinning. Such a model is not territorial, but requires the digital humanities to have integrity and the ability to empower the development of research and education. In outlining this model, there is a specific focus on intermediate-term practical implementation.
