  • A Financial Impossibility? the Case of Liberal Arts Education in Germany
    (E)quality in Education - a Financial Impossibility? The Case of Liberal Arts Education in Germany Daniel Kontowski Department of Education Studies and Liberal Arts, University of Winchester, UK & University of Warsaw, Poland; [email protected] David Kretz Bard College Berlin, Germany; [email protected] Abstract Liberal arts colleges could embody a broad and robust social justice agenda in higher education in at least four senses. On a curricular level, we can note the egalitarian nature of learning, weakening the teacher-student dichotomy as well as disciplinary boundaries, by offering small-scale, discussion-based seminars within interdisciplinary integrated curricula. On an institutional level, the social integration of academic learning with campus-based communities promotes the self-organization of students and the democratizations of university bureaucracies. Their general non-vocational mission shows a healthy distance towards the neo-liberal marketization of higher learning, and an alternative to a structured higher education system that tend to reproduce social injustices. Finally, the size and flexibility of liberal arts colleges often make them the ideal incubators for radical, even utopian, educational experimentation. (see McArthur “think piece” as well as: Nussbaum 2010, Roth 2014) Though traditionally associated with the U.S., both Western and Eastern Europe have seen a surge in liberal education institutions since the 1990s (van der Wende 2011; Godwin 2013; Godwin 2015), half of them private. Yet unlike some of their US counterparts, they face a financial trilemma: without a supportive culture of private philanthropy, and lacking public support, they increasingly rely on tuition and slash financial support for students. This way they put their social justice potential at stake, and risk becoming elitist and exclusionary.

    Planning Abu Dhabi: From Arish Village to a Global, Sustainable, Arab Capital City By Alamira Reem Bani Hashim A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in City and Regional Planning in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Elizabeth S. Macdonald, Chair Professor Michael Southworth Professor Greig Crysler Summer 2015 © Alamira Reem Bani Hashim Abstract Planning Abu Dhabi: From Arish Village to a Global, Sustainable Arab Capital City by Alamira Reem Bani Hashim Doctor of Philosophy in City and Regional Planning University of California, Berkeley Professor Elizabeth S. Macdonald, Chair The overarching objective of this research project is to explore and document the urban history of Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. It is organized as a comparative study of urban planning and design processes in Abu Dhabi during three major periods of the city’s development following the discovery of oil: (1) 1960-1966: Sheikh Shakhbut Bin Sultan Al Nahyan’s rule (2) 1966-2004: Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan’s rule; and (3) 2004-2013: Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan’s rule. The intention of this study is to go beyond a typical historical narrative of sleepy village-turned-metropolis, to compare and contrast the different visions of each ruler and his approach to development; to investigate the role and influence of a complex network of actors, including planning institutions, architects, developers, construction companies and various government agencies; to examine the emergence and use of comprehensive development plans and the policies and values underlying them; as well as to understand the decision-making processes and design philosophies informing urban planning, in relation to the political and economic context of each period.
