This book explores communication as a key influence on the
trajectory of conflicts and crises in the specific context of
academia. From the ideological responsibilities of academia to the
profit-seeking motives of institutions, the authors explore
challenges facing faculty across multiple disciplines. Critique of
the higher education industry is more necessary than ever in the
context of academic corporatization and marketization. Academia in
Conflict reveals how institutional discourses can contribute to or
mitigate conflict and crisis, offering communication practices that
prioritize stakeholder experiences and needs. Enduring academic
crises are addressed, including declines in public funding, mental
health emergencies, and threats to job stability. Academia in
Conflict provides crucial insights for navigating the challenges of
higher education today.
