Beyond material grievances: analyzing the 2015 bangladesh “No VAT on Education” movement through a New Social Movement perspective

Рассматривается бангладешское студенческое движение 2015 г. против предлагаемого налога на добавленную стоимость на обучение в частных университетах в общественном сознании как борьба с экономической политикой, угрожающей доступу к образованию. Данное движение переосмысливается с помощью теории новых социальных движений (NSM), которая подчеркивает формирование идентичности, постматериальные ценности и культурное оспаривание традиционного экономического перераспределения. Опираясь на теорию NSM, этот анализ демонстрирует, как протесты превзошли финансовые основания массового недовольства, чтобы сформировать коллективную студенческую идентичность, противостоять неолиберальной коммерциализации образования и требовать демократического участия в рамках все более авторитарного политического контекста Бангладеш. Автор заявляет об отсутствии конфликта интересов.
