| Abstract | A Critical Business is a bold statement about higher education in the modern age. It continues Barnetts thinking of his earlier books but offers a completely new set of ideas in a challenging but engaging argument. A defining concept of the Western university is that of critical thinking, but that idea is completely inadequate for the changing and unknowable world facing graduates. Instead, we have to displaca the idea of critical thinking with the much broader idea of critical being. In this idea, students reflect critically on knowledge but they also develop their powers of critical self-reflection and critical action. This critique is tranaformatory. An education for critical being calls for a new approach to the process of higher education. It also has imlications for the organization and management of universities, and for the relationship of universities to the wider worlds of work, professionalism and intellectual life. Gliederung: Part 1. Rethinking Critical Thinking (Conditions of Critical Thought, Uncritical Theory, Discourse and Critical Potential, The Closing of the Critical University?). - Part 2. Towards Critical Being (Critical Being in Higher Education, Critical Action, Critical Self-reflection, A Curriculum for Critical Being). - Part 3. Critique in Society (Critical Thought in a Corporate World, Critical Professionalism, Academics as Intellectuals, Critical Thinking for a Learning Society) (HoF/Text übernommen). |
