Summary: "In the current sociopolitical climate, discourse surrounding civility and free speech within universities has spurred controversy and even violence in some instances. This book offers an interdisciplinary approach, deploying theoretical, methodological, sociological, political, and creative perspectives to articulate the stakes of civility for marginalized academics within higher education. Chapter authors explore how the discourse on civility and free speech within academia can become a systemic form of silencing, controlling, suppressing or eradicating marginalized voices"-- Provided by publisher

内容説明・目次

内容説明

Civility, Free Speech, and Academic Freedom in Higher Education: Faculty on the Margins represents a multidisciplinary approach, deploying different theoretical, methodological, sociological, political, and creative perspectives to articulate the stakes of civility for marginalized faculty within the landscape of higher education. How has the discourse on civility and free speech within academia become a systemic and oppressive form of silencing, suppressing, or eradicating marginal voices? What are some overt and covert ways in which institutions are using the logic of civility to control faculty uprising against the increasingly corporate-controlled landscape of higher education? This collection of essays examines the continuum between the post-9/11 and the post-Trump era backlashes. It details the organized retaliations against those in academia whose views and scholarships articulate their discontents against the U.S.-led "War on Terror." It contests the rise of White supremacy, Trump's Muslim ban, anti-immigrant and racist government policies and rhetoric, and those who support the Boycott and Divestment Sanctions movements within the corporatized universities. All of these new and original essays shed light and further the debate on the various modes of civility that have become politicized within the U.S. academy. It will have a broad appeal to a cross section of national and international academics, activist scholars, social justice educators and researchers in the field of higher education.
