Academic Freedom in a Democratic South Africa: Essays and Interviews on Higher Education and the HumanitiesPaperback, 2 September 2014

This book argues that the core content of academic freedom--the principle of supporting and
extending open intellectual enquiry--is essential to realizing the full public value of higher
education. John Higgins emphasizes the central role that the humanities, and the particular forms of
argument and analysis they embody, bring to this task.
