Politics, Policies, and the Entrepreneurial University Author(s): Sheila Slaughter, Larry L. Leslie Format: Paperback Publisher: Johns Hopkins University Press, United States Imprint: Johns Hopkins University Press ISBN-13: 9780801862588, 978-0801862588 Synopsis The globalization of the political economy at the end of the twentieth century is destabilizing the traditional patterns of university professional work. One of the major changes that has taken place as a result of globalization is that faculty, who were previously situated between capital and labor, are now positioned squarely in the marketplace. To grasp the extent of changes taking place and to understand the forces of change, Academic Capitalism examines the current state of academic careers and institutions, with a particular focus on public research universities in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Australia. In this wide-ranging analysis, Sheila Slaughter and Larry L. Leslie examine every aspect of academic work unexplored: undergraduate and graduate education, teaching and research, student aid policies, and federal research policies.
