I extend the existing scholarship by examining how ideas about unpaid work and internships have emerged and mutated over the past decade in media, policy, and activist discourses. I examine the ways in which policy literature in the UK has dealt with the subject of internships over this same period and analyse how the question of internships is concretised in policy discourses. Following this, I undertake a close reading of the ways in which the figure of the intern is depicted in popular culture. Drawing on these insights, I locate the links between issues of gender, internships and unpaid work in the creative and arts sector and evaluate activist strategies to respond to these problems, engaging with my own experiences in the UK and in Poland. Altogether, my thesis demonstrates the variety of ways in which unpaid work and internships have become steadily normalised across the past decade or so, including by being rendered respectable as ‘educational’ or ‘training’ opportunities, and through their cooperation with highly gendered ideas of affective and creative labour. By analysing the research and activist efforts undertaken in response to this phenomenon, I outline a set of strategies for urgently required intervention against the exploitation and inequalities built into these burgeoning forms of work. 5 List of abbreviations ACE Arts Council England BECTU Broadcasting, Entertainment, Cinematograph and Theatre Union BIS Department of Business, Innovation and Skills CCE Cultural Capital Exchange CCI Creative and Cultural Industry CCS Creative & Cultural Skills CIPD Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development CWC Carrot Workers Collective DLHE Destinations of Leavers from Higher Education ECU Equality Challenge Unit GLA Greater London Authority GPCF Gateway to the Professions Collaborative Forum HECSU Higher Education Careers Service Unit HMRC Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs 6 IPPR Institute for Public Policy Research LCACE London Centre for Arts and Cultural Exchange LLW London Living Wage LPC Low Pay Commission NCWE National Council for Work Experience NIKS National Internship Kitemark Scheme NMW National Minimum Wage NUJ National Union of Journalists NUS National Union of Students OFSW Obywatelskie Forum Sztuki Współczesnej (Citizens Forum for Contemporary Art) PWB Precarious Workers Brigade SMF Social Market Foundation SROI Social Return on Investment TUC Trades Union Congress UCU University College Union 7 Chapter 1 Introduction: Experiencing Theory My thesis explores the interconnected issues surrounding unpaid labour, internships, and work placements within the creative and cultural sectors. I extend existing scholarship by examining how the figure of the unpaid worker and intern has emerged and mutated over the past decade in the media and in policy and activist discourses in the US, as well as in the UK and Poland, where I live and work. I pay particular attention to the ways in which unpaid work and internships are gendered and normalised via policy, media depictions and discourses such as that of ‘employability’. Despite recent publications, such as the special issues of Triple C journal devoted to internships1 and the ephemera journal2, the area of unpaid work and internships, especially in the current political and economic climate, demands further urgent scholarly attention to extend our critical understanding
