Universities in crisis? The impact of academic capitalism and McUniversities on czech social science and humanities

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Since the beginning of their existence, the social sciences, like the humanities, have been gradually formulating and searching for both the central elements of their activities, and how their findings can be applied to society. A significant part of this search takes place in universities. Currently, academic capitalism and the McDonaldization of universities are entering this process. Using data (both qualitative and quantitative) on the economic, cultural, and political frameworks of science and development from the Czech Republic, the paper identifies potential threats and crises in the social sciences and humanities. The results point to a long-term underfunding of the humanities and social sciences and the risk of their being relegated to the position of auxiliary sciences to the natural, medical, or technical sciences. Here we see a possible identity crisis in the humanities and social sciences, particularly in the role of critical reflection on the system or individual areas of human existence.
