Paperback. Condition: New. Wages for Students was published anonymously by three activists in the fall of 1975. It was written as "a pamphlet in the form of a blue book" by activists linked to the journal Zerowork during student strikes in Massachusetts and New York. Deeply in influenced by the Wages for Housework Campaign's ana…lysis of capitalism, and relating to struggles such as Black Power, anticolonial resistance, and the antiwar movements, the authors fought against the role of universities as conceived by capital and its state. The pamphlet debates the strategies of the student movement at the time and denounces the regime of forced unpaid work imposed every day upon millions of students. Wages for Students was an affront to and a campaign against the neo-liberalisation of the university, at a time when this process was just beginning. Forty years later, the highly pro table business of education not only continues to exploit the unpaid labour of the students, but now also makes them pay for it. Today, when the student debt situation has us all up to our necks, and when students around the world are refusing to continue this collaborationism, we again make this booklet available "for education against education." A trilingual edition.
