Exposing a movement away from the historical aims of community-based education, the text evidences a hijacking of community colleges to serve the objectives of the corporate elite. There has been a decline in community college faculty engagement in shared governance and their loss of recognition as academic and curricular leaders, and the book discusses the potential for redistribution of decision-making power back toward faculty.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis text will be of great interest to graduate and postgraduate students, academics, professionals and policy-makers in the fields of Higher Education, Education Policy and Politics, Sociology of Education, Higher Education Management and Education Politics. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Greg Sethares\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0367497255\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780367497255\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 126\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.39lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.32d","brand":"Greg Sethares","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43990495756543,"sku":"9780367497255","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_cb4c9a3d-8f70-4807-8a2f-fea9f39f1d20.jpg?v=1683305005","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-impacts-of-neoliberalism-on-greg-sethares-9780367497255","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
