Professor Lachmayer gave a lecture on “A post-individual academia” at the Workshop “The Impact of New Public Management on Academic Freedom”.
The workshop explores the impact of New Public Management (NPM) reforms on academic freedom and university autonomy in a comparative perspective between Nordic and Central European countries. Managerialism, performance orientation and market-based governance have increasingly shaped higher education systems, raising questions about their compatibility with academic self-governance and constitutional guarantees of academic freedom.
