This book draws on interdisciplinary social science and
philosophical frameworks to offer new dimensions to debate about
intellectual leadership and higher education. The chapters are
focused on provoking readers to think critically about intellectual
leadership in precarious times. The contributors frame critical
questions about the unevenness, ambivalences, and disruptions that
now mark everyday life and interactions. Rather than thinking about
‘freedom from precarious times and precarity’ they consider
‘freedom from within’ and how the sovereignty and autonomy of
the individual to think and speak within the public realm might be
retained, if not reclaimed. In the precarious present and in times
of precarity, what has changed and why? What might now be the new
social reality within which we work? Each of the contributors have
been invited to take up their own perspective on what is
precarious, and to examine the impacts on intellectual leadership.
What does it mean to do intellectual work and be an intellectual
leader? What are the implications for intellectual work and
leadership if the academy itself is in precarious times?
