Neoliberalism's War on Higher Education

By Henry A. Giroux

Book Overview

Giroux exposes the corporate forces at play and charts a clear-minded and inspired course of action out of the shadows of market-driven education policy. Championing the youth around the globe who have dared to resist the bartering of their future, he calls upon public intellectuals--as well as all people concerned about the future of democracy--to speak out and defend the university as a site of critical learning and democratic promise. In this updated edition, Giroux puts all of this into the context of the Trump era, arguing that education remains a key battleground for the fight against authoritarianism.
