The essays in Paul Ricoeur and the Hope of Higher Education: The
Just University discuss diverse ways that Paul Ricoeur's work
provides hopeful insight and necessary provocation that should
inform the task and mission of the modern university in the
changing landscape of Higher Education. This volume gathers
interdisciplinary scholars seeking to reestablish the place of
justice as the central function of higher education in the 21st
century. The contributors represent diverse backgrounds, including
teachers, scholars, and administrators from R1 institutions,
seminary and divinity schools as well as undergraduate teaching
colleges. This collection, edited by Daniel Boscaljon and Jeffrey
F. Keuss, offers critical and practical visions for the renewal of
higher education. The first part of the book provides an internal
examination of the university system and details how Ricoeur's
thinking assists on pragmatics from syllabus design to final exams
to daily teaching. The second portion of the book examines the Just
University's role as a social institution within the broader
cultural world and looks at how Ricoeur's description of values
informs how the university works relative to religious belief,
prisons, and rural poverty.
