Subject: Critical Labour Studies symposium 2015 - programme
To:
CRITICAL-LABOUR-STUDIES@jiscmail.ac.ukDear colleagues
Please find the attached programme for
*Critical Labour Studies *
*11^th Annual Symposium*
*28^th February - 1^st March 2014*
*Ruskin College, Ruskin Hall, Oxford, **OX3 9BZ*
I do hope that you will be able to attend.
Please circulate it to anyone you think may be interested.
*Critical Labour Studies*is now in its 11^th year and over that time we have brought to bring together researchers and activists to discuss key features of work and employment from a radical and labour-focused perspective. It has been successful in creating links between the activities of trade unionists, activists, universities, and researchers, allowing a broad and critical debate to emerge.
Through *Critical Labour Studies*we have developed an open working group and discussion forum that engages with many of the challenges facing researchers and trade unionists within the current environment of work and employment and we have done this without institutional support or financial backing.
However, we do need a little money to continue to exist – to pay for the website and to hold our annual conferences and to be able to support contributors to the conference who do not have institutional (or personal) resources on which to draw.
As such we are asking *Critical Labour Studies*supporters to agree to an annual membership and where possible to also consider making a donation.
If you wish *Critical Labour Studies* to continue holding its annual symposium and acting as an important link between practitioners/activists in the labour movement and academia then we would ask you to considered making a contribution to ensure our continuing existence (details below - and attached).

With best wishes
Jane
