STUDENTS IN REVOLT: THE PEDAGOGICAL POTENTIAL OF STUDENT COLLECTIVE ACTION IN THE AGE OF THE CORPORATE UNIVERSITY
STUDENTS IN REVOLT: THE PEDAGOGICAL POTENTIAL OF STUDENT COLLECTIVE ACTION IN THE AGE OF THE CORPORATE UNIVERSITY

Summary/Abstract: This article examines how contemporary student movements are disrupting, opposing and displacing entrenched oppressive and dehumanizing reforms, practices and frames in today’s corporate academia. This work is divided in four sections. The first is an introduction to student movements and an overview of how student political action has been approached and researched. The second and third sections take a closer look at the repertoires of contention used by contemporary student movements and propose a framework based on radical praxis, which allows us to better understand the pedagogical potential of student disruptive action. The last section contains a series of examples of students’ repertoires or tactics of contention that exemplify the pedagogical potential of student social and political action.
