(2015). The corporate university: An e-interview with Dave Hill, Alpesh Maisuria, Anthony Nocella, and Michael Parenti. Critical Education, 6(19). Retrieved from http://ojs.library.ubc.ca/index.php/criticaled/article/view/185102 Abstract Since the neo-liberal turn, corporate investment in universities has accelerated as the withdrawal of government funding, among other factors, has further exposed universities to market forces. While this process offers numerous benefits for corporations and wealthy individuals, it has been mostly detrimental for students, educators, and the public at large. In this interview, international scholars Dave Hill, Alpesh Maisuria, Anthony Nocella, and Michael Parenti broadly explain why corporations have been aggressively investing in universities. They address the numerous ways that corporate involvement in university activity negatively impacts academic freedom, research outcomes, and the practice of democracy. The interview ends on a hopeful note by presenting examples of resistance against corporate influence. Their analyses focus primarily on the United States, United Kingdom, and Canada.

It analyses the party’s electoral fortunes and the reasons for its inability to expand on its early breakthroughs in East London and Birmingham. Respect received much of its support from Muslim voters, although the mere presence of Muslims in a given area was not enough for Respect candidates to get elected. Indeed, despite criticism of the party for courting only Muslims, it did not aim to draw its support from these voters alone. Moreover, its reliance on young people and investment in local campaigning on specific political issues was often in opposition to the traditional ethnic politics which have characterised the electoral process in some areas.

  • Class Struggle and Education: Neoliberalism, (Neo)-Conservatism, and the Capitalist Assault on Public Education’, Critical Education
    South Asian University, Delhi, 22-23 March 2014 Transformative Education, Critical Education, Marxist Education: Possibilities and Alternatives to the Restructuring of Education in Global Neoliberal / Neoconservative Times Dave Hill Research Professor of Education at Anglia Ruskin University Faculty of Health, Social Care and Education Anglia Ruskin University Chelmsford Campus Bishop Hall Lane Chelmsford, CM11SQ, England Work Phone: +44 845271333 Home Phone: +441273270943 Mobile Phone: +44 7973194357 TOTAL WORD COUNT: 6,742 words Transformative Education, Critical Education, Marxist Education: Possibilities and Alternatives to the Restructuring of Education in Global Neoliberal / Neoconservative Times Abstract This paper briefly examines the context-specific paths and policies of neoliberalism and neoconservatism and the resistance to their depradations. While calling for activism with micro-, meso- and macro-social and political arenas, the paper focuses on activity within formal education institutions. It suggests a series of measures- a socialist Manifesto for education, for discussion. It concludes with a call to action for teachers and education workers (and others) to be “Critical Educators,” Resistors, Marxist activists, within and outside official education. Neoliberalism and (Neo)-conservatism and The Nature and Power of the Resistance The paths of neoliberalisation and (neo)-conservatism are similar in many countries. But each country has its own history, has its own particular context; each country has its own balance of class forces, its own level of organization of the working class and the capitalist class, and different levels of confidence within the working class and within the capitalist class. In countries where resistance to neoliberalism is very strong, as in Greece, then the government has found it actually so far very difficult to engage in large-scale privatization.

  • A Critique of the Statistical Basis for Critical Race Theory in Britain: and Some Political Implications
    Race and Class in Britain: a Critique of the statistical basis for Critical Race Theory in Britain: and some political implications Dave Hill University of Northampton, UK, and Middlesex University, London, UK Journal for Critical Education Policy Studies, vol.7. no.2 Summary In this paper I critique what I analyse as the misuse of statistics in arguments put forward by some Critical Race Theorists in Britain showing that `Race‟ `trumps‟ Class in terms of underachievement at 16+ exams in England and Wales. I ask two questions, and make these two associated criticisms, concerning the representation of these statistics: 1. With respect to `race‟ and educational attainment, what is the validity of ignoring the presence of the (high achieving) Indian/ Indian heritage group of pupils- one of the two largest minority groups in England and Wales? This group has been ignored, indeed, left completely out of statistical representations- charts- showing educational achievement levels of different ethnic groups. 2. With respect to social class and educational attainment, what is the validity of selecting two contiguous social class/ strata in order to show social class differences in educational attainment? (1) At a theoretical level, using Marxist work (2) I argue for a notion of `raced‟ and gendered class, in which some (but not all) minority ethnic groups are racialised or xeno-racialised) and suffer a `race penalty‟ in, for example, teacher labelling and expectation, treatment by agencies of the state, such as the police, housing, judiciary, health services and in employment. I critique some CRT treatment of social class analysis and underachievement as unduly dismissive and extraordinarily subdued (e.g.

  • Immiseration Capitalism, Activism and Education: Resistance, Revolt and Revenge
    Immiseration Capitalism, Activism and Education: Resistance, Revolt and Revenge Dave Hill Anglia Ruskin University, Chelmsford, England Abstract This is a panoptic paper in five parts. In Part One, Immiseration Capitalism, I examine the current neoliberal cum neoconservative austerity capitalism and its `class war from above’, in particular its resultant relative immiseration and its absolute immiseration, with particular reference to Greece, Ireland, Britain and the USA. In Part Two, Anger at, Analysis of and Activism within/ against Immiseration Capitalism, I argue that there is a necessity for Anger, (Marxist class-based) Analysis, and Activism, with Programme, Organisation and Strategy. Activism, Analysis and Strategy are then addressed in terms both of electoralism and in terms of direct, extra- Parliamentary activism, both being deemed necessary, but with the former having limitations and the latter being deemed essential. Here, I lay a stress on the importance of revolutionary Marxist party. In Part Three, I identify the main features of Neoliberalism, Neoconservatism and Education for Austerity Capitalism and Immiseration, contrasting this, in Part Four, with Activism in the Education Arena: Critical Pedagogies, Socialist Education. Here, I summarise key aspects of critical pedagogy and socialist education, and also summarise Marxist critiques of theories that serve to disable class based analysis and activism in education and society: postmodernism, identity politics, and revisionist/ reformist socialism. In Part Five, Resistance: Revolt, Revenge and Strategic Activism, I return to Resistance and Revenge and call for them to be strategically focused. Immiseration Capitalism, Activism and Education The paper is also slightly autobiographical, referencing some of my own relevant experiences, blogs and writing.

  • Dave Hill Critical Education, Critical Pedagogy and Marxist Education
    (RCP) Rethinking Critical Pedagogy Volume-1, Issue-1, May 2020. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Critical Education, Critical Pedagogy and Marxist Education: How should we educate our teachers? Dave Hill ABSTRACT This article proposes an eco-Marxist Manifesto for Teacher Education, focusing on activity within formal education systems and calls for education and cultural workers -including teacher educators- to become Marxist Activist Public Organic Intellectuals of the Working Class within micro-, meso- and macro-social and political arenas. Key Words: education, Marxism, teacher education, activism, critical education Dave Hill is Emeritus Professor of Education at Anglia Ruskin University, Chelmsford, UK and Founding/ Chief Editor of the Journal for Critical Education Policy Studies (www.jceps.com). There is a Wikipedia entry on him at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dave_Hill_(professor) Page 2 -----------------RCP-Volume 1, issue 1. May 2020. ARENAS OF ACTION There are various arenas in which Marxist and Critical Educators and Teacher Educators can be, are, and should be (Hill, 2012, 2013, 2015, 2016 a, b) - within the limits of individual capabilities and strengths: 1) Within the classroom/ seminar room/lecture theatre; 2) Within the wider school community / organization- such as the staffroom, the union branch; 3) Within the local community/ town/ city- for example in tenants’, benefits’, anti-racist, anti-austerity, environmentalist or other local community organizations and movements- and within town-wide/ city-wide political parties, social movements and trade unions; 4) At national levels within such movements, parties and organisations. I point to these arenas for transformative political social and educational activism since education takes place outside formal schooling and education systems as well as within.

  • After the Fifth International Conference on Critical Education*
    Aksoy, H. H. (2015). After the Fifth International Conference on Critical Education. International Journal of Educational Policies, 9(1), pp. 3-7. ISSN: 1307-3842 After the Fifth International Conference on Critical Education* Hasan Hüseyin Aksoy Ankara University, Turkey IJEP, Editor Hosted by Lower Silesia Faculty of Education and Department of Philosophy at Wroclaw University, the Fifth International Conference on Critical Education was held 15-18 June 2015 in Wroclow, Poland with the organization of critical education journals from various countries around the world including the International Journal of Educational Policies (IJEP) and Journal of Critical Education from Turkey. In this paper, I will share my impressions and some notes on the 5th International Conference on Critical Education in Wroclaw which was contributed by over 50 presentations from Turkey. The first two of these critical education conferences was held in Athens (2011, 2012), the third one in Ankara (2013), the fourth one in Thessaloniki (2014) with the participation of academics studying critical education, critical-revolutionist teachers, post-graduate students and intellectuals in solidarity with the aforementioned groups and activists who dedicate themselves to socio-economic justice. The recent conference was conducted with the attendance of academics and educators who made presentations or such plenary speakers from several countries among which Turkey outnumbered many other countries. One of these attendees from Turkey, he also is a teacher and a PhD student at the Institute of Educational Sciences at Ankara University, had a serious health problem following a fall just before the flight. This unlucky event demoralized our conference group at first, but then our group was in good spirits again since he was cared and got well soon, continued his communication with us, and followed the conference program online even if he could not join us abroad.
