dc.description.abstract | Book reviewed: Raewyn Connell, The Good University. What universities actually do and why it’s time for radical change, Zed Books, London, 2019, ISBN (hb) 978-1-78699 -5414, (pb) 978-1-78699-540-7, (pdf.) 978-1-78699-542-1, (epub) 978-1-78699-543-8, (mobi) 978-1-78699-544-5, 233 pages. -- This is quite a good read – refreshing, inclusive and providing a plea, to those concerned with education as a public good, to regain control of the university system against its neo-liberalisation. As with Boaventura de Sousa Santos’ volume, Decolonising the University, reviewed in the last issue of Postcolonial Directions in Education, this book is concerned with issues of demand for university education, radical action for change and subjugated sources of knowledge. | en_GB |
