TÃtulo : Imagining the University Tipo de documento: documento electrónico Autores: Barnett, Ronald (1947-) Editorial: Taylor & Francis Group Fecha de publicación: 2013 Número de páginas: 1 online resource (xi, 188 pages) : Il.: illustration ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-1-135-09844-5 Palabras clave: Education Higher Aims and objectives. Universities and colleges Philosophy. Clasificación: 378/.01 Resumen: "Despite both positive and negative perceptions of the current state of higher education, the contemporary debate over what it is to be a university is limited. Most of all, it is limited imaginatively. The range of imagined options is narrow. The imagination has not been given anything even approaching a wide scope. As a result, our sense as to what a university could be and could become in the modern age is itself impoverished. If we are seriously to develop a wide range of ideas of the university that is adequate to the challenges of the modern world, the imagination itself needs to be freed. Imagining the University seeks to address each of these sets of issues and will do so by first, identifying a very wide range of ideas of the university as it is now unfolding and could become; secondly, by evaluating those conceptions of the university with a classification of ideas of the university; and thirdly, by reflecting on the imagination itself, its current impoverishment and its possibilities. Whether studying, researching or deciding policy, this book is vital reading to all those involved in the planning and delivery of higher education"-- Nota de contenido: bla

Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Enseñanza superior FilosofÃa de la educación Educación FilosofÃa Clasificación: 370.1 Resumen: Este libro muestra la importancia del pensamiento de los filósofos (y otros pensadores clave) para comprender la universidad y la educación superior. A través de esas exploraciones, amplÃa y contribuye sustancialmente a la filosofÃa emergente de la educación superior. Se basa en la literatura histórica sobre la idea de universidad y proporciona a los académicos de educación superior introducciones muy accesibles al pensamiento de filósofos y pensadores clave, alertándolos sobre un conjunto de literatura que de otra manera no encontrarÃan. Hasta hace muy poco, la mayor parte del debate sobre la educación superior –tanto en el dominio público como en la literatura académica– se ha llevado a cabo sin tener en cuenta la literatura filosófica. Esto es extraño por dos razones. En primer lugar, gran parte de la literatura histórica sobre la idea de universidad –durante los últimos doscientos años– ha sido escrita por filósofos y su pensamiento en gran medida no ha sido minado. En segundo lugar, y quizás aún más importante, muchos de los temas en el debate sobre la educación superior son de naturaleza filosófica o requieren un pensamiento reflexivo, y hay enormes recursos en la literatura filosófica a la mano que pueden ayudar a resolver esos temas. Cuestiones como qué se considera conocimiento (en la universidad), sabidurÃa, voz, democracia, cultura, qué es "ser" un estudiante o académico, la libertad académica, la comunicación, el trabajo y la disciplina piden a gritos el tipo de ideas que la literatura filosófica, entendida en un sentido muy amplio, puede ofrecer. Este libro intenta precisamente hacer esto, mostrar cómo el trabajo de pensadores clave puede ayudar a profundizar el debate sobre la educación superior. Cada capÃtulo se centra en un pensador individual, brindando una visión del pensador en cuestión y extrayendo de manera accesible algo de su pensamiento y mostrando su importancia para comprender la universidad y la educación superior. Los editores proporcionan una introducción completa que marca este gran territorio y prepara el terreno para el lector. En una época de excesiva demanda estudiantil y de debate sin precedentes sobre a qué sirve la educación superior y a quién sirve, llega una antologÃa que aprende del pasado para comprender lo que está por venir. Filósofos sobre la Universidad ofrece análisis sofisticados y atrevidos sobre lo que constituye una universidad, su verdad, su responsabilidad y su rendición de cuentas. Un libro de profundos pensamientos y perspicacias, sólo superado por el inmenso propósito que la educación superior deberÃa cumplir. Prof. Nuraan Davids, Universidad Stellenbosch, Sudáfrica.

Tipo de medio : Computadora Summary : This book shows the significance of the thinking of philosophers (and other key thinkers) in understanding the university and higher education. Through those explorations, it widens and substantially adds to the emerging philosophy of higher education. It builds on the historical literature on the idea of the university, and provides higher education scholars with highly accessible introductions to the thinking of key philosophers and thinkers, alerting them to a set of literature that otherwise might not be encountered. Until very recently, most of the debate on higher education – both in the public domain and in the scholarly literature – has been conducted with little regard to the philosophical literature. This is odd for two reasons. Firstly, much of the historical literature on the idea of the university – over the past two hundred years – has been written by philosophers and their thinking has largely gone unmined. Second, and perhaps even more importantly,many of the issues in the higher education debate are either philosophical in their nature, or require reflective thinking, and there lies to hand huge resources in the philosophical literature that can help in working through those issues. Issues such as what is to count as knowledge (in the university), wisdom, voice, democracy, culture, what it is to 'be' a student or academic, academic freedom, communication, work and disciplinarity cry out for the kind of insights that the philosophical literature – very broadly understood – can offer. This book attempts precisely to do this, to show how the work of key thinkers can help in deepening the higher education debate. Each chapter focuses on an individual thinker, giving both an insight into the thinker in question and accessibly drawing out something of their thinking and showing its significance in understanding the university and higher education. The editors provide a full-length introduction that marks out this large territory and prepares the ground for the reader. At a time of excessive student demand, and unprecedented debate as to what and whose public good higher education serves, comes an anthology, which learns from the past to understand, that which is yet to come. Philosophers on the University offers sophisticated and unafraid analyses of what constitutes a university, its truth, its responsibility, and its accountability. A book of deep thoughts and insights, surpassed only by the immense purpose which higher education ought to fulfill. Prof Nuraan Davids, Stellenbosch University, South Africa.

Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Educación Superior Ciencias sociales EtnologÃa Educación más alta TeorÃa social AntropologÃa sociocultural Clasificación: 370.1 Resumen: Este libro revitaliza el tratamiento filosófico de la naturaleza, el propósito y el significado del pensamiento en las universidades de hoy. El debate más amplio sobre la educación superior ha pasado de ser un discurso filosófico a un discurso sobre el bienestar y el servicio social, la economÃa y las agendas polÃticas. Este libro vuelve a conectar la filosofÃa con los conceptos académicos centrales del pensamiento, la razón y la crÃtica y sus prácticas académicas asociadas de pensamiento y razonamiento. El pensamiento en este contexto no debe considerarse como una construcción meramente mental o cognitiva, y menos aún como una facultad enclaustrada, sino como un compromiso individual y social plenamente desarrollado de reflexión crÃtica y discusión sobre las cuestiones disciplinarias, polÃticas y filosóficas actuales. Los editores sostienen que el elemento del pensamiento y la capacidad de pensar de una manera profunda e innovadora sigue siendo la esencia de la universidad. Pero, ¿qué significa pensar en la universidad hoy? ¿Y de qué manera se relaciona el pensamiento no solo con las cuestiones epistemológicas y ontológicas del debate filosófico, sino también con las dimensiones sociales y polÃticas de nuestra era globalizada? En muchos paÃses, el Estado está imponiendo limitaciones a las universidades, despidiendo o amenazando a los académicos que se expresan crÃticamente. En este volumen, los editores se plantean preguntas como: ¿Cuál es el valor del pensamiento? ¿Cuál es la relación adecuada de la universidad con el pensamiento? Para dar a la noción de pensamiento un tratamiento filosófico exhaustivo, el libro se divide en tres partes. El enfoque pasa de una perspectiva epistemológica en la Parte I, a un enfoque sobre la existencia y los valores en la educación superior en la Parte II, y luego a un enfoque orientado a la sociedad en la universidad en la Parte III. Las tres partes, a su manera, debaten la noción de pensamiento en la educación superior y la universidad como una forma pensante de ser. Nota de contenido: 1.

Tipo de medio : Computadora Summary : This book reinvigorates the philosophical treatment of the nature, purpose, and meaning of thought in today's universities. The wider discussion about higher education has moved from a philosophical discourse to a discourse on social welfare and service, economics, and political agendas. This book reconnects philosophy with the central academic concepts of thought, reason, and critique and their associated academic practices of thinking and reasoning. Thought in this context should not be considered as a merely mental or cognitive construction, still less a cloistered college, but a fully developed individual and social engagement of critical reflection and discussion with the current pressing disciplinary, political, and philosophical issues. The editors hold that the element of thought, and the ability to think in a deep and groundbreaking way is, still, the essence of the university. But what does it mean to think in the university today? And in what ways is thoughtrelated not only to the epistemological and ontological issues of philosophical debate, but also to the social and political dimensions of our globalised age? In many countries, the state is imposing limitations on universities, dismissing or threatening academics who speak out critically. With this volume, the editors ask questions such as: What is the value of thought? What is the university's proper relationship to thought? To give the notion of thought a thorough philosophical treatment, the book is divided into in three parts. The focus moves from an epistemological perspective in Part I, to a focus on existence and values in higher education in Part II, and then to a societal-oriented focus on the university in Part III. All three parts, in their own ways, debate the notion of thought in higher education and the university as a thinking form of being.
