The notion of »narrative« has become ubiquitous in media coverage, political speeches and programs over the past years, in addition to being a prominent concept in discourse analysis. This article scrutinizes this current trend by asking how »narrative« is utilized and what symbolic functions it fulfils in public and political debates. We reflect on what »narrative’s success story« can tell us about the political culture of which it is part and what role it plays for the (changing) socio-political environment of our times. Finally, we discuss how the field of discourse studies might be involved in the increasing importance of »narrative«.
