This insightful volume presents a compelling challenge to widely held, traditional scientific conceptions of 'the academic,' prevalent in higher education institutions worldwide. Its primary objective is to foster optimal practices and redefine the field as accessible, inclusive, and forward-thinking. By shifting away from the dominant discourse on academia and eschewing thinking common tropes that have proved prohibitive to furthering the field and research within. By releasing 'the academic from the restrictive, narrow boundaries typically imposed, Representations of the Academic opens up a form of public sphere where the contributors bring together their innovative views to propose a new normative form. Chapters explore examples of good practice that demonstrate alternative ways of thinking and, in doing so, the book continues an emergent tradition of investigating the origins, nature, and purposes of academic work at a time when critical values are under threat. The book will be of interest to students, academics, and researchers in the fields of education, educational research, and higher and professional education more broadly. Those involved with interdisciplinary and intercultural studies, ethics, and values in research will also benefit from this volume.
