Government, Society, and the Universities in Their Reciprocal Rights and Duties --The Idea of the University: Obstacles and Opportunities in Contemporary Societies --The Modern University and Liberal Democracy --IndexThroughout his long and prolific career, Edward Shils brought an extraordinary knowledge of academic institutions to discussions about higher education. The Calling of Education features Shils's most illuminating and incisive writing on this topic from the last twenty-five years of his life. The first essay, "The Academic Ethic," articulates the unique ethical demands of the academic profession and directs special attention to the integration of teaching and research. Other pieces, including Shils's renowned Jefferson lectures, focus on perennial issues in higher learning: the meaning of academic freedom, the connection between universities and the state, and the criteria for appointing individuals to academic positions. Edward Shils understood the university as a great symphonic conductor comprehends the value of each instrument and section, both separately and in cooperation. The Calling of Education offers Shils's insightful perspective on problems that are no less pressing than when he first confronted them. Edward Shils (1910-1995) was distinguished service professor in the Committee on Social Thought and the department of sociology at the University of Chicago.

Disrupted and Disrupting Consumption: Transformations in Buying and Borrowing in Greece -- Conclusion -- IndexSince its sovereign debt crisis in 2009, Greece has been living under austerity, with no apparent end in sight. This volume explores the effects of policies pursued by the Greek state since then (under the direction of the Troika), and how Greek society has responded. In addition to charting the actual effects of the Greek crisis on politics, health care, education, media, and other areas, the book both examines and challenges the “crisis” era as the context for changing attitudes and developments within Greek society.Financial crisesSocial aspectsGreeceGreeceEconomic conditions21st centuryGreeceSocial conditions21st centuryanthropology.athens.austerity measures.austerity.business.debt crisis.economic collapse.economic crisis.economics.education.elections.engaging.finance.government and governing.greece.greek crisis.greek society.greek state.health care.historical.history.human condition.media.money.page turner.political science.political.politics.power and wealth.retrospective.revolution.social issues.social sciences.troika.Financial crisesSocial aspects330.9495MS 4420DE-16/s17-21rvkDoxiadis EvdoxiosPlacas AimeeMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910796936503321Living under austerity3777422UNINA
