Description

Explore the evolving landscape of higher education with Accelerating Academia: The Changing Structure of Academic Time. In this work, Filip Vostal examines how the nature of academic time is shifting due to a growing cultural and structural force known as the 'will to accelerate.' This book provides a deep look into how these changes impact knowledge production in modern universities. As the present-day university becomes a central topic in sociology, anthropology, and philosophy, Vostal offers a necessary perspective on the institutional transformations occurring today. This monograph focuses on the subjective experiences of social scientists working within these changing university structures. It is a significant contribution to the interdisciplinary study of science, higher education, and academia, making it a valuable resource for those interested in the critical studies of how knowledge is produced and managed in a fast-paced academic environment.
