Neoliberalism's War on Higher Education

Henry A. Giroux

3.7/5 ( ratings)

Neoliberalism’s War on Higher Education reveals how neoliberal policies, practices, and modes of material and symbolic violence have radically reshaped the mission and practice of higher education, short-changing a generation of young people.

Giroux exposes the corporate forces at play and charts a clear-minded and inspired course of action out of the shadows of market-driven education policy. Championing the youth around the globe who have dared to resist the bartering of their future, he calls upon public intellectuals — as well as all people concerned about the future of democracy — to speak out and defend the university as a site of critical learning and democratic promise.
