Impact: A Journal of Community and Cultural Inquiry in Education
Abstract
Fordism is both a global and a local phenomenon. Here I look to make some connections between American and Australian experience, beginning with the social model indicated by Gramsci in interwar Italy; travelling on to visit the Australian model and its institutional field, especially the basic wage, before casting back to Detroit and again to the antipodes to close.
Keywords: Fordism, Americanism, Australia, Gramsci, social model
