Political Economy Now!: The Struggle for Alternative Economics at the University of Sydney

by Evan Jones, Gavan Butler, Frank Stilwell

Political Economy Now! is the story of one of the most substantial and enduring conflicts in the history of Australian universities. Beginning in the late 1960s, it pitted those committed to the teaching of mainstream economics at the University of Sydney against the proponents of an alternative program in political economy. The dispute continued for decades until a Department of Political Economy was established in the Faculty of Arts in 2008.
