Advanced and developing countries across the globe are embracing
the liberal arts approach in higher education to foster more
innovative human capital to compete in the global economy. Even as
interest in the tradition expands outside the United States, can
the democratic philosophy underlying the liberal arts tradition be
sustained? Can developing countries operating under heavy
authoritarian systems cultivate schools predicated on open
discussion and debate? Can entrenched specialist systems in Europe
and Asia successfully adopt the multidisciplinary liberal arts
model? These are some of the questions put to leading scholars and
senior higher education practitioners within this edited
collection. Beginning with historical context, international
contributors explore the contours of liberal arts education amid
public calls for change in the United States, the growing global
interest in the approach outside the United States, as well as the
potential of liberal arts philosophy in a global knowledge economy.
