Save The World On Your Own Time

  • Save The World On Your Own Time

  • Attribution

    Stanley Fish

  • Publication Details

    Book, Oxford University Press, 2008

  • Description

    Those who do this will often invoke academic freedom, but Fish argues that academic freedom, correctly understood, is the freedom to do the academic job, not the freedom to do any job that comes into the professor’s mind. Given that hot-button issues such as Holocaust denial, free speech, and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict are regularly debated in classrooms across the nation, Save the World On Your Own Time is certain to spark fresh debate-and to incense both liberals and conservatives-about the true purpose of higher education in America.

How Professors Think : Inside The Curious World Of Academic Judgment

  • How Professors Think : Inside The Curious World Of Academic Judgment

  • Attribution

    Michèle Lamont

  • Publication Details

    Book, Harvard University Press, 2009

  • Description

    Economists prefer mathematical models, historians favor different kinds of evidence, and philosophers don?t care much if only other philosophers understand them. But when they come together for peer assessment, academics are expected to explain their criteria, respect each other?s expertise, and guard against admiring only work that resembles their own. In How Professors Think, Lamont aims to illuminate the confidential process of evaluation and to push the gatekeepers to both better understand and perform their role.
