Critical theory has much to teach us about higher education. By
linking critical models, methods, and research tools with an
advocacy-driven vision of the central challenges facing
postsecondary researchers and staff, Critical Approaches to the
Study of Higher Education makes a significant-and long
overdue-contribution to the development of the field. The
contributors argue that, far from being overly abstract, critical
tools and methods are central to contemporary scholarship and can
have practical policy implications when brought to the study of
higher education. They argue that critical research design and
critical theories help scholars see beyond the normative models and
frameworks that have long limited our understanding of students,
faculty, institutions, the organization and governance of higher
education, and the policies that shape the postsecondary arena. A
rigorous and invaluable guide for researchers seeking innovative
approaches to higher education and the morass of traditionally
functionalist, rational, and neoliberal thinking that mars the
field, this book is also essential for instructors who wish to
incorporate the lessons of critical scholarship into their course
development, curriculum, and pedagogy.
