Originally published in 1984, The Crisis of the University looks at
the way in which changes to intellectual life relate to the
development of the different institutions that make up higher
education. It examines the evolution of the liberal university that
flourished in the 19th and early 20th centuries into the modern
university that has grown up since 1945. It also looks at the more
detailed experience of British higher education, with separate
chapters on what the Robbins expansion meant for the universities
and why it was thought necessary to construct an alternative in the
shape of the polytechnics. Looking to the future, the book argues
first that the present structure of British higher education needs
reform and speculates on the future intellectual and social demands
that may be made of higher education.
