Organizing Enlightenment
Discover the transformative insights of Organizing Enlightenment by Chad Wellmon, published by Johns Hopkins University Press in 2016. This compelling paperback spans 368 pages and delves into the evolution of knowledge within academic institutions. Wellmon argues that for universities to thrive, they must establish a new order of knowledge—one that is self-organizing and internally coherent, reflecting the essence of the modern, critical scholar. This thought-provoking work is essential for anyone interested in the future of higher education and the role of scholarly inquiry in shaping our understanding of the world. Explore how the institutionalization of knowledge can redefine the academic landscape and foster a more integrated approach to learning and research.
