Working in the neoliberal university: Other-regarding virtues and hope; Andrew Peterson.Around the world, the landscape of Higher Education is increasingly shaped by discourses of employability, rankings, and student satisfaction. Under these conditions, the role of universities in preparing students for all facets of life, and to contribute to the public good, is reshaped in significant ways: ways which are often negative and pessimistic. This book raises important and pressing questions about the nature and role of universities as formative educational institutions, drawing together contributors from both Western and non-Western perspectives. While the editors and contributors critique the current situation, the chapters evince a more humane and compassionate framing of the work of and in universities, based on positive and valued relationships and notions of the good. Drawing together a wide range of theoretical and conceptual frameworks to illuminate the issues discussed, this volume changes the debate to one of hopefulness and inspiration about the role of higher education for the public good: ultimately looking towards a potentially exciting and rewarding future through which humanity and the planet can flourish.EducationPhilosophyPhilosophy and social sciencesHigher educationMaturation (Psychology)Educational Philosophyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O38000Philosophy of Educationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E25000Higher Educationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O36000Personal Developmenthttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O42010EducationPhilosophy.Philosophy and social sciences.Higher education.Maturation (Psychology).Educational Philosophy.Philosophy of Education.Higher Education.Personal Development.378.001378.001Gibbs Pauledthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtPeterson Andrewedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910337752903321Higher Education and Hope2537880UNINA
