5:52Now PlayingJohn is joined in conversation by Salvatore Babones, Associate Professor of Sociology at the University of Sydney. In this short, the two discuss how Australian Universities are funded, comparing them to the rest of the world. Despite periodic claims of a ‘funding crisis’ within our universities, it is noted that Australian institutions are some of the best funded in the modern-era.
'Australia’s Universities: Can They Reform?' is an indispensable counterweight to reports commissioned by trade associations, staff unions, the government, and the universities themselves. Its independent analyses offer a sneak-peek into the inner workings of the university system, with a view to helping Australia avoid disaster and achieve meaningful reform. If universities are the conscience of a nation, Australia needs all the help it can get.
Salvatore Babones is an American Sociologist, associate professor at the University of Sydney, and an expert in the areas of Chinese and American economy and society.

He is an author of several books, numerous academic articles, and a contributor to Foreign Affairs, Al Jazeera English, Quadrant and Truthout.
