The freedom of academics to pursue knowledge and truth in their
research, writing, and teaching is a fundamental principle of
contemporary higher education in the United States. But this
freedom has been hard won and regularly abridged, reinterpreted,
and violated. Academic freedom has been central to many issues and
controversies in higher education and has thus generated literature
in a variety of disciplines. This book provides access to that
literature. Included are entries for nearly 500 books, chapters,
articles, reports, web sites, and other sources of information
about academic freedom. Each entry includes a descriptive
annotation, and the entries are grouped in topical chapters. While
most of the works cited were published since the 1940 American
Association of University Professors Statement of Principles on
Academic Freedom and Tenure, some older studies have also been
included. Though the volume focuses primarily on higher education
in the U.S., it also includes a chapter on academic freedom in
other countries.
