Neoliberal philosophy seeks to attract investment by demonstrating that it can produce optimal return. Further, philosophers in the neoliberal paradigm internalize and reproduce the values of the prevailing social order in their work, reorienting philosophical desire toward the production of attractive commodities. The aim of philosophy in the neoliberal university, Absher shows, has become the production of human capital and profitable knowledge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Brandon Absher\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1793615985\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781793615985\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lexington Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/20\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 196\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.01lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.56d","brand":"Brandon Absher","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44047662743807,"sku":"9781793615985","price":100.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_793ea4e1-1d0c-4315-b072-db030df0bd2b.jpg?v=1684991504","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-rise-of-neoliberal-philosophy-brandon-absher-9781793615985","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
