Sobre IBD

Based in sociologist Zygmunt Bauman’s theory of liquid modernity, this volume describes and critiques key aspects and practices of liquid education--education as market-driven consumption, short life span of useful knowledge, overabundance of information--through a comparison with ancient Greek paideia and medieval university education, producing a sweeping analysis of the history and philosophy of education for the purpose of understanding higher education, positing a more holisitic alternative model in which students are embedded in a learning community that is itself embedded in a larger society. This volume outlines a renewed vision of social transformation through higher education.
