Sommario/riassunto |
|
Sets out to generate ways of reflecting ethically about the purposes and values of contemporary higher education in relation to agency, learning, public values and democratic life, and the pedagogies which support these. This book offers an alternative to human capital theory, and emphasises the intrinsic and the economic value of higher learning. |
