This book examines the restructuring of universities on the basis of neoliberal models, and provides a vision of the practice of hope in higher education as a means to counteract this new reality. The authors present a re-imagined version of Jonathan Swift â€œA Modest Proposalâ€? to highlight the absurdity of policy trends and decisions within higher education and shock people out of indifference towards action. The authors suggest the â€˜practice of hopeâ€™ as a way to create a system that moves beyond neoliberalism and embraces equity as commonplace. Providing real-worldÂ possibilitiesÂ of the practice of hope, the book offers possibilities of what could happen if neoliberalism at the higher education level is counteracted by the practice of hope.
