Aprašymas

An original and urgently needed critical reinterpretation of higher education focusing on the contradictions and conflicts of the private in the public and shareholders versus stakeholders.

Myths and misconceptions dominate our understanding of higher education and especially public higher education. They mislead all parties including students and citizens. Education for Citizenship or Disciplining for Civility? sets out to dispel such myths. Graff focuses on the major example of The Ohio State University, a very large and prominent 150-year-old American public land-grant university that is known more for its football teams than for its academic excellence. This book thus presents a new understanding of the limits and the importance of the public-in history, theory, civics, and operation.
