In The Rise of Neoliberal Philosophy: Human Capital, Profitable
Knowledge, and the Love of Wisdom, Brandon Absher argues that the
neoliberal transformation of higher education has resulted in a
paradigm shift in philosophy in the United States, leading to the
rise of neoliberal philosophy. Neoliberal philosophy seeks to
attract investment by demonstrating that it can produce optimal
return. Further, philosophers in the neoliberal paradigm
internalize and reproduce the values of the prevailing social order
in their work, reorienting philosophical desire toward the
production of attractive commodities. The aim of philosophy in the
neoliberal university, Absher shows, has become the production of
human capital and profitable knowledge.
