On December 1, a few members of Rad Ref conducted a business research workshop for the Labor Outreach Committee of Occupy Wall Street. This is expected to be the first in a series, so stay tuned for more research resources in the coming year! This page represents the introduction to the workshop, and four more sections plus a resource guide follow (links are also at the bottom of the page): |

Some members of Radical Reference are involved in this trip: A delegation of librarians, archivists, and other library workers will travel to Palestine in the summer of 2013. We will connect with our colleagues in library- and archive-related projects and institutions there, applying our experience in the form of skillshares and other types of joint work. We will travel as truth-seekers and information-skeptics, eager to dispense with the superficial and inaccurate portrayals of life in Israel/Palestine that we see in the west and to learn about the realities of life under occupation and apartheid. As library workers, we support access to information, and recognize that this goes in more than one direction. Our trip will shed light on how Palestinian voices and information about Palestine reach us (or do not) and how Palestinian people access (or cannot access) information. We will bear witness to the destruction and appropriation of information, and support efforts to preserve cultural heritage and archival materials in Palestine. Upon return to our communities, we will share what we have seen, apply what we have learned, publicize projects we have visited, and otherwise break down barriers to access in any way we can.

question / pregunta:
Is there a possibility to be led to documents/articles that gives a history of what local governments did with monies given to them by the federal government nation-wide, or even world-wide after natural or man-made disasters in the 20th and 21st Century? Hopefully this is not that vague of a question. |

question / pregunta:
Hi! I am looking for journal articles or books that can provide some kind of analysis on the relationship between the extreme "crack down" on (im)migrant labourers / undocumented labourers, and political economy. Given that so many states, especially border states, and so many provinces, seem to benefit from the exploitation of workers in programs such as the temporary foreign workers program, seasonal labour programs, and from businesses that hire undocumented workers -- how do such harsh immigration laws work within the logic of capitalism? Or do they run up against it? Where could I find a discussion about the relationship between these things? I am interested in both liberal and anti-capitalist perspectives.
