Beyond the consolations of professionalism: resisting alienation at the neoliberal university 超越专业主义的慰藉:抵制新自由主义大学的异化

The British university system is in a deep crisis, born of a two-pronged assault. The crisis is born firstly from decades of neoliberal marketisation and the rise of a remote and authoritarian executive elite presiding over a downwardly mobile and culturally deprivileged academic profession. We call this process neoliberal managerialism. It is born secondly from the ideological and political assault on universities, currently led by the Tories, reflecting the resurgence of anti-intellectualism since the millennium. The paper argues that although these currents embody ostensibly conflicting values, they combine and reinforce each other. We illustrate this argument by discussing lacunae in the decolonisation of British universities, notably the colonial ideologies and practices inscribed in neoliberal university governance and management. The final section reflects on how to resist and overcome the crises engulfing UK higher education. Framed by reflections on the positionalities of the authors, it argues that no consolations can be found in old-style academic professionalism, which historically was no less regressive than neoliberal managerialism and often complicit in its rollout. We conclude that academics could instead embrace the ineluctable dynamics of de-professionalisation and work towards an authentic and solidaristic public intellectuality.
英国的大学系统正处于严重的危机之中,这是由双管齐下的攻击造成的。这场危机首先产生于几十年来的新自由主义市场化,以及一个遥远而专制的高管精英的崛起,他们主导着一个向下流动、文化上被剥夺了特权的学术职业。我们称这一过程为新自由主义管理主义。其次,它源于对大学的意识形态和政治攻击,目前由保守党领导,反映了自千年以来反智主义的复苏。本文认为,虽然这些潮流体现了表面上相互冲突的价值观,但它们相互结合,相互促进。我们通过讨论英国大学非殖民化的缺陷来说明这一论点,特别是新自由主义大学治理和管理中铭刻的殖民意识形态和实践。最后一部分反思了如何抵制和克服席卷英国高等教育的危机。在对作者立场的反思框架下,它认为,在旧式的学术专业主义中找不到任何安慰,这种专业主义在历史上不比新自由主义管理主义更倒退,而且经常在其推出过程中串通一气之差。我们的结论是,学者们可以接受不可避免的去专业化的动态,并朝着一个真实和团结的公共知识的方向努力。

The idea of a democratic university 民主大学的理念

This article sets the current crisis of universities in the UK in its recent historical, post–1960s context. It argues that an expansionary and initially broadly progressive phase of development from the 1960s onwards, lasting for twenty-five or so years, has come in the recent neoliberal decades to be seen as a threat to the dominant social order, in the context of a broader resistance to the egalitarian and democratic trends of post-war British society. Since the 1980s this now large sector of social and cultural production and reproduction has been subject to a purposeful restructuring, to render it consistent with the norms of a society dominated by capital. This restructuring can be broadly understood as taking place within a neoliberal framework of assumptions. Unless this wider situation, and the changes which have led to them, is understood, in historically and theoretically coherent terms, resistance to what is happening is unlikely to succeed. The article first discusses the phase of university expansion, the forces which brought it about, and the social and cultural changes and opportunities to which it gave rise. It then discusses the counter-reaction, and the attempts to remodel the practices and institutions of higher education that constitute its active elements. Finally it explores what might be involved in resetting this path of development in a more positive direction, and considers the many theoretical and political difficulties involved in imagining this and making it possible. Here it argues the need for a dismantling of the graduate meritocracy over society, and for bringing into being an educated democracy. It is crucial to create the conditions for a broad debate on the place and function of universities in our society, in which these larger issues of direction and purpose can be debated. The author notes, however, that only in a society that becomes less grossly unequal than ours is it possible to imagine education being designed or indeed allowed to serve these generally democratic and enabling purposes.
本文将英国当前的大学危机置于其最近的历史背景下,即20世纪60年代后。它认为,从20世纪60年代开始的扩张和最初广泛进步的发展阶段,持续了25年左右,在最近的新自由主义几十年里,在对战后英国社会的平等主义和民主趋势的更广泛抵制的背景下,被视为对主导社会秩序的威胁。自1980年代以来,社会和文化生产和再生产的这一庞大部门一直受到有目的的改组,以使其符合由资本主导的社会的规范。这种重构可以被广泛地理解为发生在新自由主义的假设框架内。除非从历史和理论上连贯的角度理解这种更广泛的局势以及导致这种局面的变化,否则对正在发生的事情的抵抗不太可能成功。本文首先论述了大学扩张的阶段、推动大学扩张的力量以及大学扩张所带来的社会文化变革和机遇。然后讨论了反作用,以及重塑构成其积极因素的高等教育实践和机构的尝试。最后,它探讨了在更积极的方向上重新设置这条发展道路可能涉及的内容,并考虑了想象这一点并使其成为可能所涉及的许多理论和政治困难。在这里,它认为有必要废除毕业生对社会的精英统治,并建立一个受过教育的民主国家。至关重要的是,要创造条件,就大学在我们社会中的地位和功能展开广泛的辩论,以便就这些更大的方向和目的问题进行辩论。然而,作者指出,只有在一个不像我们这样严重不平等的社会中,才有可能想象教育被设计或被允许服务于这些普遍民主和促进的目的。

Hallways to learning: creating brave spaces inside contemporary Higher Education 学习的走廊:在当代高等教育中创造勇敢的空间

Over the last two decades, two contradictory processes have been notable within the development of Higher Education. The marketisation of the sector has advanced steadily at the same time as professed policies of widening participation, and this has left universities stuck between a rock and a hard place. The datafication of equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) policies has rendered invisible the minoritised experience in HE, and the needs of non-traditional student identities. As early career researchers and casualised members of staff, the authors are expected to fulfil dual roles in the institution, and operate under conditions of 'in-extremis'. Drawing on Wenger's ideas of identity as a negotiated experience, and the notion of Communities of Practice, they show how different senses of achievement have been framed for non-traditional students and staff, through both policy and practice. Because of the precarity of their posts, the authors are expected to edgewalk their way through conditions of crisis. To address some of these issues they have introduced the concept of hallway teaching - a practice that exists within a liminal space - to highlight their sense of transience between the position of student and staff. This transience affects their ability to create long-term engagement, while they are simultaneously expected to be the most likely people to create bridges between EDI policy, staff and students
近二十年来,我国高等教育的发展出现了两个相互矛盾的过程。与此同时,该行业的市场化也在稳步推进,同时公开宣布了扩大参与的政策,这让大学陷入了进退两难的境地。平等、多样性和包容性(EDI)政策的数据化,使得高等教育中少数人的经历和非传统学生身份的需求变得不可见。作为早期职业研究人员和临时工作人员,作者们被期望在该机构中扮演双重角色,并在“极端”的条件下工作。他们借鉴了温格关于身份是一种协商经验的观点,以及实践社区的概念,展示了如何通过政策和实践为非传统的学生和教职员工构建不同的成就感。由于他们的职位不稳定,预计作者将在危机条件下蹑手蹑脚地前进。为了解决这些问题,他们引入了走廊教学的概念——一种存在于有限空间内的实践——以突出学生和教职员工之间的短暂感。这种短暂性影响了他们创造长期参与的能力,同时他们被期望成为最有可能在EDI政策、员工和学生之间建立桥梁的人

Resisting higher education's (re) production of elitism in an ethos of care-taking 以关怀的精神抵制高等教育对精英主义的(再)生产

The University for the Creative Arts (UCA) is undergoing a transformation. This is the perspective sold to the staff as jobs are terminated. This time it is not so much a restructure as a complete closure of further education across all campuses in Surrey and Kent. The UCA is 'stepping back' as a Further Education provider, to focus on undergraduate, postgraduate and research degrees. In addition, the campus that most serves the local community, in Chatham, Kent, is to be closed and sold, most likely for redevelopment. This essay explores the neoliberal agenda that led to this sad erasure of a prestigious arts community, whose alumni included Zandra Rhodes, Tracey Emin and Billy Childish. It exposes the common-sense discourses employed by the university to compel the staff and student body to consent to the neoliberal methods at play. A mixed media embroidery artwork and poetry have been created for this article, and referenced is a recent exhibition, UCA - Retrospective: Creativity Past, Present & Future. Creative arts practices illustrate this story, as well as many conversations with students and staff. The stories of those living through this experience are woven within the narrative. In the sadness of loss there is also celebration, as our own transformations are made possible: leaving one collective space of creativity enables openings. To stitch and repair the soul of self and others creates understandings and an awareness. In this way freedoms are fostered, and social justice prevails.
创意艺术大学(UCA)正在经历转型。这是在工作终止时卖给员工的观点。这次与其说是重组,不如说是彻底关闭萨里郡和肯特郡所有校区的继续教育。UCA正“退而为”继续教育机构,专注于本科、研究生和研究学位。此外,肯特郡查塔姆(Chatham)为当地社区提供最多服务的校园将被关闭并出售,最有可能用于重建。这篇文章探讨了新自由主义的议程,它导致了对一个著名艺术团体的可悲抹去,这个团体的校友包括赞德拉·罗兹(Zandra Rhodes)、特蕾西·埃明(Tracey Emin)和比利·幼稚(Billy幼稚)。它揭露了大学使用的常识性话语,迫使教职员工和学生团体同意正在发挥作用的新自由主义方法。这篇文章使用了一个混合媒介的刺绣作品和诗歌,并参考了最近的一个展览,UCA -回顾展:创造力的过去,现在和;的未来。创造性的艺术实践说明了这个故事,以及与学生和教职员工的许多对话。那些经历过这种经历的人的故事被编织在叙述中。在失去的悲伤中也有庆祝,因为我们自己的转变成为可能:离开一个创造性的集体空间使开放成为可能。缝合和修复自我和他人的灵魂创造了理解和意识。通过这种方式,自由得以培育,社会正义得以盛行。

Leadership, excellence and the marginalisation of refugees in Higher Education 高等教育中难民的领导力、卓越性和边缘化

In this article we trace the changing fortunes of an education initiative for refugees and other displaced people located at Central European University (CEU). The programme (OLIve - the Open Learning Initiative) has shifted: instead of being celebrated as an innovative response to the 'migrant crisis' of 2015 it was marked for closure by CEU's leadership in 2023. We locate this change in OLIve's fortunes in CEU's adaptations to the changing conditions of higher education, not least the potent combination of dynamics of marketisation and managerialisation. We suggest these have produced a reorganisation of power and authority within the university, encapsulated in the person of the Leader - and the organisational phenomenon of 'leaderism'. The Leader both announces and embodies the pursuit of 'excellence' as the core mission of the university, underpinned by the accumulation of financial and cultural capital ('prestige'). We trace some of the ways in which this mission reorganises the landscape of the university, marginalising those deemed non–excellent and the programmes that might support them. We suggest that these dynamics remain contested and contestable in important ways
在这篇文章中,我们追踪中欧大学(CEU)难民和其他流离失所者教育倡议的命运变化。这个项目(OLIve——开放学习计划)已经发生了变化:它没有被誉为对2015年“移民危机”的创新回应,而是被中欧大学的领导层标记为在2023年关闭。我们将OLIve的命运变化定位于CEU对不断变化的高等教育条件的适应,尤其是市场化和管理化动态的有力结合。我们认为,这些已经在大学内部产生了权力和权威的重组,浓缩在领导者身上——以及“领导主义”的组织现象。领袖既宣布并体现了追求“卓越”作为大学的核心使命,并以积累的金融和文化资本(“声望”)为基础。我们追溯了这一使命重组大学景观的一些方式,将那些被认为不优秀的项目和可能支持他们的项目边缘化。我们认为,这些动态在重要方面仍然存在争议和争议

The long resolution? Responding to economic and social change in postwar South Wales 长期解决方案?回应战后南威尔士的经济和社会变化

This article investigates the period between the late-1950s and the mid-1970s, a time when millions of people in Britain moved from towns and older industrial settlements to the urban periphery. South Wales offers a particularly interesting perspective here, as many moves were within twenty miles and seemed to be driven by high levels of state investment in industry, housing and road infrastructure. This essay aims to examine the long-term impact of these decisions on later generations and to demonstrate the determination - or will - of political actors in Wales, who are often competing with other places. As well as adapting Raymond Williams's well–known The Long Revolution for my title, I use his structure of feeling concept to seek an understanding of how change was experienced. This is achieved by presenting four recent interview accounts gathered from people who lived in South Wales in the first three decades after World War Two
这篇文章调查了20世纪50年代末到70年代中期这段时间,数百万英国人从城镇和老工业定居点搬到了城市边缘。南威尔士在这方面提供了一个特别有趣的视角,因为许多迁移都在20英里以内,似乎是由国家对工业、住房和道路基础设施的高水平投资推动的。本文旨在研究这些决定对后代的长期影响,并展示威尔士政治行动者的决心或意愿,他们经常与其他地方竞争。除了改编雷蒙德·威廉姆斯著名的《漫长的革命》作为我的标题外,我还使用了他的感觉结构概念来寻求对变化是如何经历的理解。本文通过对二战后头三十年生活在南威尔士的人们进行的四次采访来实现这一目标

The rise and rise of real estate neoliberalism 房地产新自由主义的兴起

Noting the recent ascent of the housing emergency back up the political agenda, this essay takes a materialist view on the genesis of the current crisis. Since the 1970s, the state has shifted away from its role as manager of a mixed housing economy to take on the role of engineer, particularly on behalf of financial actors. This is leading to a tendency toward the financialisation of all housing, with social housing now arguably at the forefront of this trend. A crucial symptom of the trend toward financialisation is the UK's unequal outcomes in the housing system: key outcomes in housing - such as security of tenure, quality and affordability - are all deeply unequal (although the UK is not a complete outlier when judged against comparable economies). The essay ends by making the case for analysing the current housing regime under the lens of 'real estate neoliberalism', and for the transformation of this system into one founded on 'public housing luxury'
注意到最近住房危机上升到政治议程上,本文对当前危机的起源采取了唯物主义的观点。自上世纪70年代以来,国家已经从混合住房经济的管理者角色转变为工程师的角色,特别是代表金融参与者。这导致了所有住房金融化的趋势,而社会住房现在可以说是这一趋势的前沿。金融化趋势的一个关键症状是英国住房体系的不平等结果:住房的关键结果——比如租住权的保障、质量和可负担性——都非常不平等(尽管与可比经济体相比,英国并非完全例外)。文章最后在“房地产新自由主义”的视角下分析了当前的住房制度,并将这一制度转变为建立在“公共住房奢侈”基础上的制度。

The essay ends by making the case for analysing the current housing regime under the lens of 'real estate neoliberalism', and for the transformation of this system into one founded on 'public housing luxury'","PeriodicalId":45378,"journal":{"name":"SOUNDINGS","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136361156","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Two members of the King&'s College London branch of the University College Union (UCU) discuss the union's long-running national dispute over the Universities Superannuation Scheme (USS), as well as more local disputes they have been involved with at the College level. Their actions over conditions within King's - including on equalities issues, specifically child care issues, London weighting and institutional democracy - illustrate how a branch can link up local disputes with national disputes, making them more concrete and specific, and seeking to create an institution that has a local form of democracy running through it. They also discuss how union debate and action has expanded during the period of the dispute: the union, both nationally and locally, has taken up issues of precarity and casualisation; pay gaps and structural inequalities; workloads; and questions of decolonisation. At King's, the union are negotiating for free childcare support for all staff, available on the same basis for everyone, as part of a wider collective agreement with the college on all issues of pay and conditions of employment. They have also sought to democratise the Council - the decision-making body of the College - partly through drawing attention to the increasing number of corporate figures who sit on the Council, including its chair, Lord Geidt. As well as increasing involvement in the Black Lives Matter movement, there has been a radicalising of the branch's activities on imperialism, including calling attention to the role of the college in imperialism, and demands to demilitarise both the USS and the university itself.
大学学院联盟(UCU)伦敦大学金学院分会的两名成员讨论了该联盟在大学退休金计划(USS)上长期存在的全国性争议,以及他们在学院层面上参与的更多地方争议。他们对国王学院内部条件的行动——包括平等问题,特别是儿童保育问题,伦敦加权和制度民主——说明了一个分支机构如何将地方争端与国家争端联系起来,使它们更加具体和具体,并寻求创建一个具有地方民主形式贯穿其中的机构。他们还讨论了在纠纷期间工会的辩论和行动是如何扩大的:全国和地方的工会已经开始讨论不稳定和临时工问题;薪酬差距和结构性不平等;工作负载;以及去殖民化的问题。在国王学院,工会正在谈判为所有员工提供免费的托儿服务,每个人都可以在同样的基础上获得,这是与学院就所有薪酬和就业条件问题达成的更广泛的集体协议的一部分。它们还设法使理事会- -学院的决策机构- -民主化,部分办法是提请注意理事会中越来越多的法人人物,包括其主席盖特勋爵。除了越来越多地参与“黑人的命也是命”运动外,该分支在帝国主义问题上的活动也越来越激进,包括呼吁人们关注大学在帝国主义中的角色,并要求美国大学和大学本身非军事化。
