The Institutional Autopsy: A Comparative Analysis of the Crisis in Modern Higher Education

This presentation provides a critical review and in-depth comparison of the contemporary higher education crisis. By analyzing Peter Fleming’s concepts of "Dark Academia" and Gayle Brewer’s insights into the hidden aspects of academic life, the presentation deconstructs the "Neoliberal University" structure. It explores phenomena such as "invisible work," "burnout," and the "commodification of knowledge," offering a comprehensive visual and textual synthesis for researchers interested in the sociology of higher education.
