Today, academic freedom is a core value in American higher
education, and tenure is its primary protection. Yet modern
understandings of faculty rights and responsibilities did not arise
without difficulties; they were debated and defined by American
academics in the decades leading up to World War II. Conditional
agreements during this period set the stage for modern conditions
of faculty work and fundamental elements of American higher
education. Through its examination of the development and
experiences of academic freedom and tenure-and, especially, the
activities of the professional, voluntary, and labor organizations
that battled over their establishment-this book provides the
historical context necessary for understanding modern debates over
academic freedom, tenure, and the widespread casualization of
academic labor.
