The Capture of Academia: How Universities Shape Power, Silence Dissent, and Influence Society - Brossura
Sinossi
Universities no longer simply educate Britain's elites. They shape the assumptions, values, and ideologies that govern public life
After forty-seven years inside Britain's universities, Norman Fenton explains how political activism came to dominate academic life, rewarding conformity over enquiry and activism over scholarship.
Drawing on personal experience and extensive evidence, Fenton argues that the ideological capture of universities has spread far beyond the campus, reshaping public institutions, influencing government policy, distorting scientific debate and eroding the values on which a free society depends.
At a time of growing concern about free speech, elite power, and the role of universities in public life, The Capture of Academia offers a timely and controversial account of what has gone wrong, and why it matters far beyond the campus.
"A calm, cogent but ultimately moving account of how one of the most respected academics in the country became a rebel and outcast for his insistence on truth and honesty. Fenton is a genuine national treasure."
DANIEL JUPP
"Fenton reveals the closing of the British academic mind and an ideological transformation that has exerted a terrible influence over politics and society. A must read for anyone concerned about Britain's increasingly indoctrinated and oppressed society."
KATHY GYNGELL

They shape the assumptions, values, and ideologies that govern public life After forty-seven years inside Britain's universities, Norman Fenton explains how political activism came to dominate academic life, rewarding conformity over enquiry and activism over scholarship.>At a time of growing concern about free speech, elite power, and the role of universities in public life, The Capture of Academia offers a timely and controversial account of what has gone wrong, and why it matters far beyond the campus. 'A calm, cogent but ultimately moving account of how one of the most respected academics in the country became a rebel and outcast for his insistence on truth and honesty. Fenton is a genuine national treasure.'DANIEL JUPP 'Fenton reveals the closing of the British academic mind and an ideological transformation that has exerted a terrible influence over politics and society. A must read for anyone concerned about Britain's increasingly indoctrinated and oppressed society.'KATHY GYNGELL 'Fenton's account stands out precisely because it is not abstract theorising. It is the detailed testimony of a mathematician who rose to the highest ranks of his profession - a world-class expert in Bayesian statistics applied to risk analysis and decision-making - only to find himself isolated, cancelled and driven out once his evidence-based dissent on climate change and Covid policy became known. The timing of the book's appearance is almost providential: it coincided with the scandal surrounding Cambridge's youngest black full professor of sociology, Jason Arday, a case that illustrates Fenton's argument to the letter - that EDI (equality, diversity and inclusion) ideology prioritises diversity, equity and inclusiveness over scrutiny, merit and scholarly integrity.'THE DAILY SCEPTIC 'Ultimately, the clarity, provenance, and scope of this book make it an essential resource for anyone seeking to understand the decline of Western Democracy in the early 21st Century'DAVID WISEMAN.
