CHAPTER

This chapter explores the irony that academia, which should be a space for intellectual discussion, has been taken over by management ideologies and administrative bureaucracy. It discusses the impact of managerial terms and ideas on academic discourse and the lack of passion for literature within the academic community. The speaker contrasts the vibrant discussions in the blogging community with the seriousness and lack of camaraderie in academia.
