Academic Barbarism, Universities and Inequality (Palgrave Critical University Studies)

by Michael O ' Sullivan (Author)

Synopsis

The image of the university is tarnished: this book examines how recent philosophies of education, new readings of its economics, new technologies affecting research and access, and contemporary novelists' representations of university life all describe a global university that has given up on its promise of greater educational equality.
