These articles seem to be behind a paywall, is this the case for anyone
else?

The Dismantling of the Universities
Since perhaps the 1970s, certainly the 1980s, official discourse
has become increasingly colonised by an economistic idiom, which
is derived not strictly from economic theory proper, but rather
from the language of management schools, business consultants and
financial journalism. British society has been subject to a
deliberate campaign, initiated in free-market think tanks in the
1960s and 1970s and pushed strongly by business leaders and
right-wing commentators ever since, to elevate the status of
business and commerce and to make ‘contributing to economic
growth’ the overriding goal of a whole swathe of social, cultural
and intellectual activities which had previously been understood
and valued in other terms.

Downgrading Obama
The debt crisis confronting the Obama administration is the
product of war and taxes. There is little dispute that the origins
of the crisis predate Obama’s election. When George W. Bush took
office in 2001, the US had a $2 trillion budget surplus. Many
believed that if the country merely continued on the path set by
Bill Clinton, the national debt, then $5.7 trillion, would be
eliminated by the end of the decade. Bush chose a different way.

Malcolm X
How to be black in America was the challenge for spirited young
men of colour who found their way to Harlem in the troubled years
of the 1940s, when music, poetry, dance and art were giving way to
drink, drugs, street crime and sex for money. Malcolm Little’s
first impulse was to cut loose in the big city where he found
himself soon after his 17th birthday in 1942.
