  1. (2 other versions)Improving the Student Experience.Elizabeth Staddon & Paul Standish - 2012 - Journal of Philosophy of Education 46 (4):631-648.
    Shifts in funding and a worldwide trend towards marketising higher education have led to a new emphasis on the quality of the student experience. In the UK this trend finds its strongest expression in recent policy proposals to simultaneously increase student fees and student choice so that students themselves become the drivers of higher education. We trace the policy developments of this shift over recent years and rehearse some of the criticisms against it. Accepting that there is good reason to (...)

    ABSTRACT This paper focuses on the representation of the notion of employability and the job-seeking ‘reality’.

  • Academic market culture meets Zionism: interest and demand in the case of Israeli Middle Eastern and Islamic studies.Eyal Clyne - 2018 - Critical Discourse Studies 16 (1):21-39.
    ABSTRACTThis paper explores specific forms that neoliberal discourse and culture in academia today take in the field of Israeli Middle Eastern and Islamic studies.

Contextualising this field of discourse within neoliberal academia, I deconstruct (...)
