Series in Advanced Political Economy - Why Can't Our Universities Be Free? Higher Education, Financialisation and Workers' Struggle

About The Course

This online international seminar series is jointly organised by SOAS University of London, our KTP partner, the New School for Social Research in New York, and Forum for Real Economic Emancipation (FREE) in Tulsa.

The Series in Advanced Political Economy (SAPE) connects the academic discussions to the real-world power struggle and workers’ everyday lives. For each session, we will invite leading experts on the subject and analyse what’s been going on by identifying key challenges. Together with the audience, we want to think about how we can fight against the challenges and build a movement toward a more systematic change.

This session will be delivered as a hybrid event in New York, 7-9pm UK time.
