This easy to read critique of market-driven neoliberalism is offered as a metaphor to analyse the excesses, contradictions and obstructions in contemporary university governance. With incisive satirical humour, Tomaselli delves into the quirks of university administrative systems and how these affect lived relations within sections of the academy.
Contemporary Campus Life’s analysis of managerialism as a cause of academentia is partly framed by exigencies imposed by the Covid 19 pandemic. Keyan Tomaselli’s argument is that the virus has brought about an ecological correction that affects all human and animal kinds, one that management theory can learn from. Tomaselli’s very easy to read critique of market-driven neoliberalism is offered as a metaphor to analyse the excesses, contradictions and obstructions in contemporary university governance. With incisive satirical humour, Tomaselli delves into the quirks of university administrative systems and how these affects lived relations within sections of the academy, in teaching and research practice, science and reasoning.
