Free universities as academic commons

Esra Erdem

Chapter 35 in The Handbook of Diverse Economies, 2020, pp 316-322 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: As emancipatory spaces of learning, free universities articulate a critical response to the commodification of higher education and the enclosure of knowledge. Grounded in the principles of commons, free universities across the world support alternative forms of educational praxis in terms of access to knowledge, the organization of labour process, structures of collective governance and community building.
