Professor Ailsa McKay, Glasgow Caledonian University, was a feminist economist who worked with others to evidence and articulate a radical economic model that recognises all work paid and unpaid. Ailsa died on the 5th March 2014. As part of the film, former First Minister Alex Salmond was interviewed and stated that his biggest mistake during his seven-year premiership was not engaging Ailsa’s work sooner.
Following the screening, there will be an extended round-table discussion looking at the themes explored in Ailsa’s work and in the film, alongside a general discussion of working conditions for women today.
