Dear 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
