SOMERS, Patrícia et al. Academic capitalism and the entrepreneurial university: some perspectives from the Americas. Roteiro. UNOESC [online]. 2018, vol.43, n.1, pp.21-41. ISSN 2177-6059.  https://doi.org/10.18593/r.v43i1.13888.

Since the Worldwide Financial Crisis of 2008, higher education institu tions around the world have been forced to change their financial practices to focus on the bottom line. One such approach is academic capitalism, the heart of which is the entrepreneurial university which views faculty members as producers of capital (not educators), students as consumers (not learners), and business/industry, accredi tors, and NGOs as valued business partners. This article defines academic capitalism, reviews the research literature, presents perspectives of academic capitalism in the Americas and discusses the implications of academic capitalism for Latin America. The article ends using anthropophagi to assess what is useful about academic capita lism for Brazil.

Palavras-chave : Academic Capitalism; Entrepreneurial Universities; Higher Education.
