Becoming a scholar activist

I’ve been looking for information about ‘scholar activism’ and recently came across an MA in Activism and Social Change at Leeds University. It’s run by Dr. Paul Chatterton, lecturer in the School of Geography. His colleague has written a really interesting, reflective paper about setting up the MA degree, and Paul has written a couple of related papers on making strategic interventions inside and outside the neo-liberal university, and about academia and activism.

Interested in this stuff? Got any links and references to share?

  1. Very interested – just spent the last hour watching the video and reading bits of chapters of the Do It Yourself book. Lots of good links on the trapese.org website.
