The book discusses, through the context of higher education discourse of philosophy and comparative education, how global universities have evolved into higher educational institutions concerned with knowledge (re)production for various end purposes that range from individual autonomy, to public accountability, to serving the interests of the economy and markets. The question can legitimately be asked: Is an .ubuntu .university different from an entrepreneurial university, thinking university, and ecological university? While these different understandings of a university accentuate both the epistemological and moral imperatives in relation to itself and the societies in which they manifest, it is through the .ubuntu .university that emotivism in the forms of dignity and humaneness will enhance a university’s capacity for autonomy, responsibility, and criticality. This book would be of academic interest to university educators and students in philosophy of education, comparative education, and cultural studies.. | 出版日期 | Book 2023 | 关键词 | African higher education; ubuntu; humanity; responsibility in higher education; non-violence | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-06454-8 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-031-06456-2 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-031-06454-8 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
