Revisiting Academic Capitalism in Canada: No Longer the Exception
Metcalfe, Amy Scott
Journal of Higher Education, v81 n4 p489-514 Jul-Aug 2010
In "Academic Capitalism: Politics, Policies, and the Entrepreneurial University" (1997), Slaughter and Leslie found that Canada showed signs of resisting academic capitalism. Changes in postsecondary education funding policies and the emergence of new commercialization initiatives are evidence that Canada is certainly no longer, and perhaps never was, the "exception" to academic capitalism. (Contains 5 tables and 7 notes.)
