The papers in this edition of Social Alternatives are self-conscious expressions of scholar activism. Collectively, the papers draw attention to the role of education in mobilising the possibility of progressive social change. All of them, bar one, represent the outcome of a conference and writing workshop for education activists held at Flinders University, South Australia, on 8 and 9 November 2018. Brought together under the banner of The Future University, the two days were attended by researchers, scholars and educationalists within and beyond the university sector.
