The impact of the current student loans regime on Muslim student engagement and retention in English higher education
There is much interest in the potential for an alternative funding system for higher education students in England to support the spiritual and worldly needs of British Muslim students. At the heart of this issue lies a tension over whether the student financing system in English HE is haram , or forbidden under Islamic ( Shari'ah ) law, because it prohibits engagement with activities that are governed by interest‐bearing engagement with money (c…
Decolonising or anti-racism? Exploring the limits of possibility in higher education
Decolonising work in Higher Education (HE) has become increasingly mainstreamed. One issue is the relationship between such work and that of equality, diversity and inclusivity (EDI), or the potential reduction and co-option of decolonising for EDI purposes. This article discusses the characterisations of, and drivers for, decolonising inside UK HE, and then situates this against one, institution-wide programme of work. This programme sought to i…
Who Transfers and Where Do They Go? Identifying Risk Factors Across Student, School, and Neighborhood Characteristics
Research demonstrates that student mobility, or students transferring schools, significantly affects student academic outcomes, making it a critical concern for policymakers and practitioners. Within-school-year transfers, in particular, often reflect sudden, unexpected circumstances. However, research on the prevalence, risk factors, and patterns of student mobility remains limited. This study leverages an ecological framework to identify studen…
Beyond the limits of solidarity in the post-pandemic university
This article challenges a liberal analysis of higher education (HE) inside an integrated system of economic production, and instead critiques: first, how UK policymakers sought to re-engineer English HE during and after the pandemic, through governance, regulation and funding changes predicated upon accelerating a discourse of value-for-money; second, the institutional labour reorganisation that followed, and which placed complete class fractions…
Sharing Big Video Data
Data sharing and transparency are becoming more common across the social sciences. In this article, we provide an overview of ethical, methodological, and technological considerations and challenges when developing large video-based datasets intended to be shared across researchers. We cover data security, storage, and access as well as data documentation, tagging, and transcription. Our discussions are framed by our own efforts to create a secur…
The Palgrave International Handbook of Marxism and Education
This book shows how developing Marxist theory in the global South & North enables historical and material understanding of education sectors and contexts.
Country of Origin and Representative Bureaucracy
A large body of research shows that clients of government services benefit from the presence of bureaucrats with whom they share race or ethnicity. These benefits arise from active or symbolic representation, which scholars argue are grounded in the shared backgrounds, language, and values that race and ethnicity proxy. We suggest that these shared connections are likely to be even more salient for clients and bureaucrats who share not just the s…

Has the University Become Surplus to Requirements? Or Is Another University Possible
This article contends that the University has become a place that has no socially-useful role beyond the reproduction of capital, such that it has become an anti-human project. The argument pivots around the bureaucratic university’s desire for surplus, and its relationship to the everyday, academic reality of feeling surplus to requirements. In defining the contours of this contradiction, inside the normalisation of political economic crisis, we…
The Hopeless University
Covid-19 and the Hopeless University at the End of the End of History
Country People
I had misgivings the minute I walked in. The classroom was too small, the desks were for kids, and the blackboard was on rollers. When the first students turned up, my worries increased. I knew that adult education courses tend to attract the odd and the lonely, but this bunch looked more displaced than most. Taking the enrollment slip from a large, sad woman in her midforties, I wondered if my job was just to keep them occupied till they found w…

On the Alienation of Academic Labour and the Possibilities for Mass Intellectuality
As one response to the secular crisis of capitalism, higher education is being proletarianised. Its academics and students, increasingly encumbered by precarious employment, debt, and new levels of performance management, are shorn of autonomy beyond the sale of their labour-power. Incrementally, the labour of those academics and students is subsumed and re-engineered for value production, and is prey to the twin processes of financialisation and…
The Alienated Academic
Issue Advertising and Legislative Voting on the Affordable Care Act
During the congressional fight over the Affordable Care Act (ACA), interest groups spent record sums on television issue advertising in targeted efforts to influence members of Congress, but did the money make any difference? We use the literatures on outside lobbying and legislative behavior to develop two hypotheses about issue advertising’s effects on members’ voting decisions. We test the hypotheses using population-weighted, station-level ad…
Kaunda, Founder of Zambia
Being a Man, Being a Member
By 1960, there were more than 3,500 working men’s clubs in Britain, with a combined membership of more than two million people. This article explores their post-war transformation from small homosocial enclaves for drinking and bar-games to larger family-oriented entertainment venues, while they continued to provide social, welfare and educational activities for local communities. Operating on the boundaries of public and private life, they remai…
Love, Toil, Laughter, and Devotion
Julie-Marie Strange’s Fatherhood and the British Working Class, 1865–1914 is perhaps the most intimate portrayal yet in the growing field of the history of fatherhood. Her study joins work by Lynn
Dismantling the Curriculum in Higher Education
The higher education curriculum in the global North is increasingly co-opted for the production of measurable outcomes, framed by determinist narratives of employability and enterprise. Such co-option is immanent to processes of financialisation and marketisation, which encourage the production of quantifiable curriculum activities and tradable academic services. Yet the university is also affected by global socio-economic and socio-environmental…
Family Men
Laura King's Family Men: fatherhood and masculinity in Britain 1914–1960 is a welcome addition to an emerging scholarship on fatherhood, and the first study to focus on the early to mid twentieth c
The implications of Autonomist Marxism for research and practice in education and technology
This article considers the relevance of Autonomist Marxism for both research and practice in education and technology. The article situates the Autonomist perspective against that of traditional Marxist thought – illustrating how certain core Autonomist concepts enable a critical reading of developments in information and communication technology. These include notions of the ‘social factory’, ‘immaterial labour’ and ‘cognitive capital’, the ‘gen…
English Heritage book of Viking age York
During the Viking Age, York was the most important centre of Scandinavian power and influence in Britain. This book outlines the history of this exciting period and traces the impact which the Viking settlers made. Recent excavation campaigns in the area have shed new light on the life-style of York's Viking age citizens. From the well-preserved remains of their houses and workshops, York Archaeological Trust has put together details of the envir…
Lobbying as Legislative Subsidy
Professional lobbyists are among the most experienced, knowledgeable, and strategic actors one can find in the everyday practice of politics. Nonetheless, their behavioral patterns often appear anomalous when viewed in the light of existing theories. We revisit these anomalies in search of an alternative theory. We model lobbying not as exchange (vote buying) or persuasion (informative signaling) but as a form of legislative subsidy-a matching gr…
Buying Time
Over the last two decades institutional critics have increasingly charged that moneyed interests dominate the legislative process in Congress. Systematic research on campaign contributions and members' floor voting, however, provides little supporting evidence. We develop a view of the member-donor relationship that questions the theoretical underpinnings of the vote-buying hypothesis itself and suggests two alternative claims: (1) the effects of…
The Committee Assignment Process and the Conditional Nature of Committee Bias
The view that congressional committees tend to be biased subsets of their parent chambers provides the foundations for a substantial body of theoretical literature on distributive politics and legislative structure. More recent revisionist work suggests that committees composed of preference outliers are in fact rare. We reject the categorical account of preference outliers a priori and elaborate conditions under which committees should be unrepr…
Avarice and Ambition in Congress
Over two centuries ago, Adam Smith wrote of two passions that motivate those seeking public distinction: avarice and ambition. By investing these categories with appropriately concrete meaning, we develop a model of House members' career decisions. Like other individuals contemplating retirement options, politicians act with an eye to their financial interests, but not all financial interests are alike. The financial factor that matters most invo…
Participation and Purpose in Committee Decision Making
Participation in committee decision making is an important form of legislative behavior but one we know little about. I develop a model of committee participation and test it using data drawn from staff interviews and records of the House Committee on Education and Labor. The analysis confirms that congressmen are purposive actors, but it also shows that different interests incite participation on different issues and that motivational effects va…
What Happens After the Alarm? Interest Group Subsidies to Legislative Overseers
A rich theoretical literature has illuminated the institutional mechanisms through which legislators influence agency policy. We focus on the behavioral ones, examining the decisions of individual legislators to intervene in agency rulemaking. We argue that interest groups play an important but incompletely understood role in the oversight process. They may sound alarms when agencies threaten harm, but they also subsidize the interventions of sym…
Empires of the Monsoon
A triumph: a first class comprehensive narrative of the impact upon the people of the Indian Ocean of those who penetrated it. It is hard to believe that this account of a European epic has any rival.' J.M. ROBERTS, author of the Penguin History of the World Until Vasco da Gama discovered the sea-route to the East in 1497-9 almost nothing was known in the West of the exotic cultures and wealth of the Indian Ocean and its peoples. It is this civil…
The Power of Subcommittees
Since the reforms of the 1970s, congressional scholars and critics have widely acknowledged the political importance of subcommittees, suggesting that the modern Congress has been transformed to a state of "subcommittee government." In this essay, we investigate the phenomenon of subcommittee power in four parts. We argue first that the empirical evidence so often cited on this subject is inappropriate to the task of measuring subcommittee power.…
Measuring Legislative Influence
The study of legislative influence has suffered from serious conceptual and methodological problems, and as a result important theoretical claims on the subject have proven difficult to evaluate. In this paper, I present a technique for measuring legislative influence based on a simple survey instrument administered to congressional staffers. The instrument elicits information about the effect of individual members' preferences on the substance o…
Targeted Issue Advertising and Legislative Strategy
Interest group spending on issue advertising is growing dramatically, but we know very little about its deployment and purpose in legislative advocacy. This article begins to fill the gap, examining where, when, and why interest groups run television issue advertisements. We start from the premise that issue advertising is a form of outside lobbying, but we argue that it can serve two legislative ends. We hypothesize, first, that group strategist…
The false promise of technological determinism
According to software vendors and consultants, Enterprise Resource Planning systems (ERPs) transform the nature, structure and management of work regardless of organisational context. This paper contests this technologically deterministic view of organisational change by demonstrating the role that discourse plays in the social construction of ERPs

Are Pains Necessarily Unpleasant
With apologies for asking you to do something unpleasant, I bid you think of some painful injury you suffered recently, say a cut finger, a burned hand, or a bruised leg. Concentrate on the painful sensation. No doubt it was unpleasant, more unpleasant, I fear, than your present memory of it. But was it necessarily unpleasant? In particular, was the unpleasantness an intrinsic aspect of the sensation, so that you couldn't have that very sensation…

ERPs as ‘technologies‐in‐practice’
Enterprise Resource Planning systems (ERPs) often fail to deliver the organisational benefits anticipated. This paper uses Orlikowski's ‘technology‐in‐practice’ framework to analyse the impact of an ERP on branch managers in a large bank. While this framework provides important insights into the impact of ERPs, the case also highlights the significance of organisational factors in shaping how users enact technology at work

Settlement and Monasticism at Ripon, North Yorkshire, From the 7th to 11th Centuries A.D
Archaeological investigations of a number of small sites, combined with information provided by antiquarian writers, indicate the existence of a number of churches and/or cemeteries in the vicinity of Ripon Cathedral. In two cases these demonstrably originate in the 8th century or earlier, and in the other, less well documented instances an early origin seems likely. It is suggested that these sites are early ecclesiastical nuclei associated with…
The University and the Secular Crisis
The economic crisis of 2008 was followed by a persistent recession, with low levels of growth, weak aggregate demand, and high levels of underemployment or unemployment. For several recent authors this forced an engagement with the idea that the global economy is witnessing a secular stagnation or crisis. This article is situated against the changing landscape of English HE and seeks to understand the implications of the secular crisis on that se…

Labour and Citizenship
This paper is concerned with the political determinants of the significantly different rates of welfare expenditure which characterise advanced capitalist countries. The research concentrates on the connections between the organization and mobilization of a key political actor pursing social wage benefits – the labour movement – and different levels across nations of welfare provision, including expenditure on health, social security consumption …

A high status burial from Ripon Cathedral, North Yorkshire, England
Excavations beneath the crossing at Ripon Cathedral in North Yorkshire recently revealed a burial radiocarbon dated to the late 15th century AD. The burial was that of a young adult female; the location of the grave suggests a person of relatively high status. The very well preserved skeleton revealed abnormal changes to the bones of the thoracic cavity including anterior bowing of the sternum, flattening of the spinous processes of thoracic vert…

The dynamics of media independence in post‐Ceauşescu Romania
The development of the mass media in post‐Ceauşescu Romania has displayed an alarming tendency to revert to communist methods of control and subservience. This is demonstrated by a detailed examination of how the various media have construed the events of the revolution of 1989. There is certainly a variety of opinion now expressed, including ‘Ceauşescu‐nostalgic’ views, but even formally oppositionist newspapers have adopted the ‘official’ versi…
Two Paths to Prosperity
The shift of an industrial relations system from the centralised settlement of pay and work conditions to the encouragement of enterprise-level bargaining presents industrial relations actors with the opportunity to influence the organisation of work in one of two ways. Drawing on a range of theories of work organisation and production we contrast profitability enhancement strategies and productivity enhancement strategies. The recent dramatic sh…

Husbands' Occupational Attributes as Constraints on Wives' Employment
This paper draws attention to the implications of the husband's occupational role for the wife's employment by reviewing a widely dispersed literature. It is argued that central attributes of the husband's work role limit the sharing offamily work and put pressure on the wife to participate in the "two-person career, " thereby limiting her own occupational participation and attainment. The socioeconomic rewards, career patterns, temporal requirem…
A Viking-age Grave at Donnybrook, Co. Dublin
RECOGNITION IN THE Castle Museum, Nottingham, of a ‘lost’ sword from a Viking-age warrior's grave excavated at Donnybrook, Co. Dublin, in 1879, has prompted a reassessment of the burial, which is discussed in relation to other Viking-age burials in the ‘Irish Sea province’. Detailed metallurgical analysis of the sword, undertaken during conservation, has provided important information about the techniques of its construction, and has demonstrated…
