  1. (1 other version)Higher education, pedagogy and the 'customerisation' of teaching and learning.Kevin Love - 2008 - Journal of Philosophy of Education 42 (1):15-34.
    It is well documented that the application of business models to the higher education sector has precipitated a managerialistic approach to organisational structures ( Preston, 2001 ). Less well documented is the impact of this business ideal on the student-teacher encounter. It is argued that this age-old relation is now being configured (conceptually and organisationally) in terms peculiar to the business sector: as a customer-product relation. It is the applicability and suitability of such a configuration that specifically concerns this contribution. (...)

  • Kant versus the Managers: Historical Reconstruction and the Modern University.Michael Schapira - 2019 - Journal of Philosophy of Education 53 (1):111-126.
    This paper examines the role of normative ideals in contemporary critiques of the university. It begins by suggesting that the normative ideal of the university advanced by Immanuel Kant in The Conflict of the Faculties is particularly relevant to current critiques, as exemplified by a manifesto produced at the University of Aberdeen entitled ‘Reclaiming our University’. The second portion of the paper notes that such critiques cannot however encompass all aspects of the modern university. The paper thus concludes that a (...)

  • (1 other version)The Obliteration of Truth by Management: Badiou, St. Paul and the question of economic managerialism in education.Anna Strhan - 2010 - Educational Philosophy and Theory 42 (2):230-250.
    This paper considers the questions that Badiou's theory poses to the culture of economic managerialism within education. His argument that radical change is possible, for people and the situations they inhabit, provides a stark challenge to the stifling nature of much current educational debate. In Saint Paul: The Foundation of Universalism, Badiou describes the current universalism of capitalism, monetary homogeneity and the rule of the count. Badiou argues that the politics of identity are all too easily subsumed by the prerogatives (...)
