Resisting Neoliberalism in Higher Education Volume I : Seeing Through the Cracks Hardback
Edited by Dorothy Bottrell, Catherine Manathunga
Part of the Palgrave Critical University Studies series
Hardback
Description
In light of the overwhelming presence of neoliberalism within academia, this book examines how academics resist and manage these changes.
The first of two volumes, this diptych of critical academic work investigates generative spaces, or ‘cracks’ in neoliberal managerialism that can be exposed, negotiated, exploited and energised with renewed collegiality, subversion and creativity.
The editors and contributors explore how academics continue to find space to work in collegial ways; defying the neoliberal logic of ‘brands’ and ‘cost centres’.
Part I of this diptych illuminates the lived experiences of changing academic roles; portraying institutional life without the glossy filter of marketing campaigns and brochures, and revealing generative spaces through critical testimony, fiction, arts-based projects, feminist and Indigenous critical scholarship.
It will be of interest and value to anyone concerned with neoliberalism in academia, as well as higher education more generally.
