Description
This book reveals the layered effects of the corporatization of higher education, situated within the phenomenon of disaster capitalism.
The authors argue that higher education administrators have seized on the Covid-19 pandemic as an opportunity to advance a corporate higher education agenda consistent with the principles of disaster capitalism.
This crisis deeply impacts what and how students in the United States learn, who gets to learn, and the very mission of the academy.
Chapters also address neoliberalism as a policy statement that has reshaped and continues to shape higher education in the United States and in much of Western societies.
