  • Summary

  • Episode 7 saw a rejuvenated post-Euro vacation Duncan, and a nascently emerging-from-Melbourne-winter Mark rejoin their forces to tackle 1984's Terminator, James Cameron's (and Arnold Schwarzenegger's) breakout film, which featured light commentary on the narrative of technological determinism and humanity's - at this point almost boring - belief that robots are going to murder us all.

    We're joined by our special guest, Dr Jim Stanford, Director and Economist at the Centre for Future Work, whose research over an illustrious career in the labour movement provides swads of evidence to prove that Arnie's claim "I'll be back" was a little overblown - both then, and now.

    Yesterday's Tomorrow Today is sponsored by the Carmichael Centre within the Centre for Future Work at The Australia Institute.
