Simpson begins with three questions. First, what is the nature of the social contract that universities have with public life? Second, how might this social contract shape undergraduate education? And third, how do specific approaches to knowledge and undergraduate education inform how students understand society?In a bold challenge to conventional wisdom about Higher Education, Simpson argues that todays neoliberal educational norms foreground abstract concepts and leave the complications of real life, especially the intricacies of power, unexamined. Analysing modern teaching techniques, including service learning and civic engagement, Simpson concludes that for Higher Education to serve democracy it must strengthen students abilities to critically analyse social issues, recognize and challenge social inequities, and pursue justice. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of Toronto Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55232386990248,"sku":"1706823","price":1650.0,"currency_code":"UYU","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0526\/8960\/0680\/files\/POCI-9780802096708_POCI-_9780802096708_d440d12f-8304-436b-bc5f-3f29ee968402.jpg?v=1770611203","url":"https:\/\/www.libreriapocho.com.uy\/products\/longing-for-justice-simpson-1","provider":"Librería Pocho","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
