About the book

Higher education is increasingly unable to engage usefully with global emergencies, as its functions are repurposed for value. In a landscape of increased commodification of higher education, the book explores the relationship between alienation and crisis, before analysing how academic knowledge, work, identity and life are themselves alienated.
