Ewers R: Project Management for Academic
Researchers

Project Management for Academic Researchers

Critical University Studies

How the cult of capitalism reshaped the American university--and hollowed it out from within.Over the past several decades, American universities have been remade as engines of entrepreneurial ambition. Technology transfer offices, business incubators, pitch competitions, innovation hubs, and leadership centers now sit at the heart of campus life, radically altering how institutions describe their purpose, structure curricula, and imagine student success. The Start-Up Factory argues that this shift has come at a steep cost.James Rushing Daniel traces the rise of entrepreneurialism in higher education and shows how universities came to embrace the figure of the founder as both ideal and benefactor. Business leaders--many of them major donors--are celebrated as singular visionaries, their values imported into academic life and framed as models for intellectual work. This reverence, Daniel argues, has narrowed the university's sense of public responsibility for distorted academics, and transformed institutions into finishing schools for aspiring entrepreneurs. Moving across policy and historical documents, institutional rhetoric, teaching materials, site visits, and interviews, The Start-Up Factory documents how entrepreneurial thinking has reshaped the pedagogy, culture, and mission of the American university.The consequences of this entrepreneurial focus extend far beyond campuses. By promoting the myth of the self-made billionaire, universities help legitimize extreme inequality and normalize forms of power that undermine democratic life. At a moment of deep institutional crisis, when the influence of the billionaire class on college campuses is increasingly absolute and the future of higher education is uncertain, The Start-Up Factory offers a clear-eyed account of how universities arrived here--and why reclaiming their autonomy has become an urgent task.

This book is concerned with the practical, ethical and political realities of critical research around state punishment. By definition, critical research is a dynamic and political process which recognizes the broad structural contexts within which human action takes place. Critical researchers argue for a more dynamic and reflexive approach to research, and have duties to expose oppressive structures and practices, make audible voices that are habitually silenced, and empower and emancipate marginalized groups and individuals. Based on a series of interviews conducted with researchers within and outside of academia, this book aims to capture the personal challenges, ethical dilemmas, practical obstacles, positive rewards and (potential or actual) harmful effects of undertaking critical research concerned with state punishment. It will also explore the different mediums used to disseminate research findings and how such findings are received by peers, the public and the state.Researching Punishment is essential reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students of criminology, media, sociology, journalism, film studies, and cultural studies.

Critical Reflections

Researching Punishment

You've heard of IQ and EQ. But in today's world, they're no longer enough. We need the Agility Quotient (AQ). In a time defined by nonstop disruptions, when jobs vanish overnight, industries evolve in months, and yesterday's rules no longer apply, AQ-the Agility Quotient-is the intelligence you need to handle change, uncertainty, and the unknown. The good news is that, with the right toolkit, you can grow your agility and learn to navigate a world of increasing instability. Drawing on leadership coach and former venture capitalist Liz Tran's work with over 200 successful founders, executives, and dozens of companies and organizations, AQ reveals a model for how high-performing teams and managers adapt to uncertainty. Tran will show you how to cultivate 'durable skills,' essential human abilities that remain valuable no matter what the future holds. With the book's Agility Archetype assessment, the book personalises the AQ journey to every kind of individual. No matter their experience level or ambitions. Written with conversational flair and practical advice, AQ offers readers a wealth of resources, including:<ul><li>Tools to rebuild confidence for when you're bombarded by life's curveballs or feeling burned out Actionable steps for making a big shift, even when you feel stuck.</li></ul><ul><li>Advice on finding clarity in moments of professional turbulence.</li></ul> AQ also takes readers behind the scenes at companies, from NVIDIA and Microsoft to rising start-ups like Lex, to see AQ in action. You'll also meet trailblazers like Maggie Lena Walker, the first female bank president in American history, and Emile-Maurice Hermès, who transformed Hermès into a global luxury powerhouse. As the adage goes, 'the only certain thing is change.' AQ is the critical intelligence for our unpredictable future.
