  • You Can Add Up the Parts, You Won't Have the Sum

    Open AccessRichard SeymourARTICLECritical Sociology2023References: 4

    Matt Huber's Climate Change as Class War offers a compelling ecosocialist strategy for achieving energy transition and social transformation by way of class struggle. Its critique of the strategic emphasis on knowledge and individualised guilt is persuasive. Its proposed focus on organising among energy workers is suggestive. However, on two related points, it misses the mark. First, its attack on degrowth as a form of ideology is tendentious. Se…

  • Parental expectations for young people's participation in higher education in Australia

    Paul Koshy, Alfred Michael Dockery et al.ARTICLEStudies in Higher Education2019Cited by: 7References: 38

    This paper examines factors affecting parental expectations of higher education prospects for their children using Australian household survey data. We find that a variety of factors influence parental expectations, of which parents’ assessment of their children’s academic performance is the strongest. Factors known to impact upon actual higher education participation, such as parental education and remoteness, are already evident in parental exp…

  • Mourning and Militancy

    Richard Seymour, Michael D YatesARTICLEMonthly Review2017

    There is a degree of unpredictability in politics today that presents opportunities for those who aren't too constrained by past experience to see them. We're seeing the possibility of regenerating a left that has previously been ground down to the scale of atoms, one that, if it adapts creatively to the coming defeats, can prepare the ground for success. But that means recognizing that the history of the left is a history of defeats; it is a his…

  • Promoting low socio-economic participation in higher education: A Comparison of Area-Based and Individual Measures

    Alfred Michael Dockery, Richard Seymour et al.ARTICLEStudies in Higher Education2016Cited by: 7References: 9

    As with other countries, Australia has been grappling with the identification, measurement and impact of disadvantage in higher education. In particular, the measurement of socio-economic status (SES) has been of central concern. The immediate solution in Australia has been the introduction of an ‘area’ measure in which students' SES is categorised on the basis of census data for their neighbourhoods rather than on individual or household data. T…

  • The Tail that Wagged the Treatment Dog: A Personal View of Training and the Haight Ashbury Free Clinics

    Richard Seymour, Richard B SeymourARTICLEJournal of Psychoactive Drugs2011

    Functioning at the epicenter of social and drug experimentation, the Haight Ashbury Free Medical Clinic and its larger entity, the Haight Ashbury Free Clinics (HAFC), founded by David E. Smith, M.D., in June 1967, exerted from its beginnings a national influence far beyond its size and scope. Not only did HAFC serve as the prototype for a national and international free and community clinic movement, its practitioners' understanding and treatment…

  • John Spargo and American Socialism

    Richard SeymourARTICLEHistorical Materialism2009

    Markku Ruotsila's impressive new biography of John Spargo is an incisive assessment of one of the earliest architects of neoconservatism. Spargo, a British socialist who spent most of his life in the United States, had moved gradually to the right of the socialist movement, advocating a gradualist and anti-revolutionary interpretation of Marxism. Having defended the American intervention in WWI, he was an early and avid critic of the Bolshevik Re…

    David E Smith, Joseph Guydish et al.ARTICLEJournal of Psychoactive Drugs2003

Starting with the production of the SARC biannual proceedings, this new journal will evolve into a quarterly print publication. The traditional print format will later be supported by an on-line backup component…
