agree  Oliver Simões: Prefiro a tradução literal nesse caso. Enredamento tem tudo a ver com enredo (plot). Adicionei uma nota explicativa com informações adicionais.

Reference: causal emplotment

Reference information:
Per definition on ArtisInitiative.org, Chapter 6: Four features of narrative (Part I):

"Somers and Gibson (ibid.:59) describe causal emplotment as ‘an accounting (however fantastic or implicit) of why a narrative has the story line that it does’. Causal emplotment is about giving significance to particular instances in order to explain why things have happened in a particular way. Hayden White (1987) distinguishes narrative from medieval annals, which listed events in chronological sequence year by year without singling out any particular event or providing any kind of ‘plot’ or storyline. In an account of this type, all events are equal and no value judgments are made. Narrative, on the other hand, will always single out certain people as protagonists and certain events as turning points, and will tend to explain why one event leads to another."

Ao meu ver, Somers and Gibson expandiram a definição de White, simplesmente acrescentando a palavra "causal" e dando um novo enfoque. Acho mais prudente escolher um termo que esteja mais diretamente associado à raiz "plot".

O tradutor de Somers ignorou algo básico na formação das palavras, que é o processo de aglutinação:

em: (prefixo)
plot: enredo
- ment: mento
emplotment: articulação?

Não creio que essa seja a melhor tradução.
