Stewart, Georgina; Roberts, Peter
Policy Futures in Education, v14 n2 p238-251 Feb 2016
This collaborative paper reflects on academic life in Aotearoa-New Zealand. Drawing on our different personal histories, we examine the dominant influence of neoliberal ideas in shaping tertiary education reform, explore the importance of identity and worldview in structuring academic experience, and discuss the role of philosophy of education in the contemporary university.
