INTERVIEW
with PAUL LAUTER
"What we were doing, those of us who constituted part of the academic left, and, in particular, within the literary profession, we were trying to find ways of reconciling our socialist politics with what it was we did in the classroom. That was not easy."

    INTERVIEW
    with LOUIS KAMPF
    Editor's Note: When we interviewed Paul Lauter and asked him to suggest someone to write a brief essay celebrating his contribution to the academic labor struggle, he named Louis Kampf. After talking to Louis Kampf, we thought that you might enjoy hearing what he had to say, too. It's a profound pleasure to honor both of them in this issue of WORKPLACE.

    ANTHONY O'BRIEN, Guest Editor
    "Ultimately, what the comparisons of academic transformation struggles show is that the university institutions are too narrow a frame in which to address the underlying problems or seek solidarities. We must fight out our specific fights in our specific places. But at the same time we need to seek out alliances with which to challenge and build alternatives to global and national neoliberalisms. We can work together . . ." --Chris Lowe
