Yet another scandal brewing within UK Higher Ed: universities can get research money for everyone they've sacked. Big ghost fleets of lecturers who don't exist will be launched into the next Research Excellence Framework. Unis will laugh and cash in (1/2). englishassociation.ac.uk/ref2029-conc...

One day course on educating people about histories of slavery, colonialism and imperialism. Intended for professionals in the education, heritage & cultural sectors but anyone interested welcome. Sat 21 June, Sussex: onlineshop.sussex.ac.uk/product-cata...

History repeats itself! In 2010 all us students at CRMEP (then at middlesex university) occupied the university to save it, that time it worked, don’t let it happen this time either! I can’t put into words how much this education has meant to me and so many more. www.kingston.ac.uk/faculties/ki...

The Centre for Research in Modern European Philosophy - CRMEP is being dismantled by Kingston University due to administrative "restructuring". It is nothing short of an attack on the Humanities and a culling of the most reputable Philosophy department in the UK.

Gillian Rose's 1987 lecture at the University of Sussex has now been published in Thesis Eleven. In it, she explores the idea of "method" in Marx's work and its broader implications for philosophy, sociology, & social theory. Here are a few brief thoughts on it. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

How did fascist movements in 1930s Britain appeal to women and even former suffragettes? Martin Durham, in a rediscovered talk given to History Workshop in 1983, and Daniel Jones (@narson.bsky.social) on the continued resonance of these insights in today's world. www.historyworkshop....
