What does it mean to be “precarious?” Is it political, economic, or ontological? Geoff, Devori, and Michael have a spirited discussion as they try to define “precarity” as it relates to the current state of the world and academia. How does precarity impact academics? What do precarity its underpinning ideologies cost academia in the long run?
