030// How can we disrupt capitalism in the education system? feat. Ashok Kumar

requires improvement

In this episode the Requires Improvement team are honoured to be joined by Dr. Ashok Kumar, senior lecturer in political economy at Birkbeck University. We use the recent UCU strikes as a jumping off point for a wide ranging discussion about privatization and neoliberal forces within the education sector, the importance of strategy in taking effective industrial action, and where the trade union movement should be looking next for victories. Solidarity with all members, reps, organisers and officers of the UCU.
