At the beginning for the new millennium, higher education is under
siege. No longer viewed as a public good, higher education
increasingly is besieged by corporate, right-wing and conservative
ideologies that want to decouple higher education from its legacy
of educating students to be critical and autonomous citizens,
imbued with democratic and public values. The greatest danger faced
by higher education comes from the focus of global neo-liberalism
and the return of educational apartheid. Through the power of
racial backlash, the war on youth, deregulation, commercialism, and
privatization, neo-liberalism wages a vicious assault on all of
those public spheres and goods not controlled by the logic of
market relations and profit margins. Take Back Higher Education
argues that if higher education is going to meet the challenges of
a democratic future, it will have to confront neo-liberalism,
racism, and the shredding of the social contract.
