Description

The future of public higher education is held hostage by a nearly invisible set of financial institutions and actors. How did it get this way?  Lend and Ruleexposes how institutional debt is a primary driver of university austerity, miseducation, and the deepening of societal inequality. Addressing the burning questions of how our lives are entangled in a debt economy, theydevelop the analysis necessary to transform higher education into a hub for radical social change in today’s neoliberal racial capitalist political economy. Part theoretical analysis, part toolbox for organizers in higher education,Lend and Ruleis an invaluable resource for anyone engaged in debt abolition struggle or looking to acquire a critical and transformative vision of higher education today.
