Critical Conversations in Higher Education (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780639889221)

Reimagining higher education, transformation, ethics, and innovation in South Africa. What does it mean to be a university in an era of deep social inequality, digital disruption, and decolonial reckoning? This groundbreaking collection brings together leading South African scholars and practitioners to challenge the assumptions underpinning our higher education system. And to reimagine its future. From toxic leadership and neoliberal policy, to AI in the classroom and curriculum co-creation with communities, these chapters tackle the urgent ethical, pedagogical, and economic questions facing universities today. Blending theory with real-world practice, contributors offer bold visions for a more inclusive, socially responsive, and innovative academy.

For anyone committed to transforming higher education in South Africa and beyond, this book is essential reading.
