The Public University as a Real Utopia: Towards a Renewal of Higher Education de Martin Aidnik

The Public University as a Real Utopia: Towards a Renewal of Higher Education: Palgrave Critical University Studies

Autor Martin Aidnik
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 28 aug 2024
This book theorises the public university as a real utopia, drawing upon the work of the American sociologist Erik Olin Wright. The book explores institutional democracy, academic freedom and the curriculum as the real utopian 'constituents' of the public university. In doing so, the author puts forward an argument for the redevelopment of public universities, seeking to do justice to both a radical vision and practical feasibility. This imaginative reconstruction of the university advances debate in the sociology and philosophy of higher education.
