The book critically examines the concept of care within higher education, utilizing Joan Tronto's framework to evaluate perceptions of universities as caring institutions. It highlights how systemic and structural issues contribute to a lack of support for students and staff, exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. By integrating insights from sociology, social justice, and feminist critique, the authors challenge the notion of care as radical and propose strategies to foster a more caring environment in universities, emphasizing the importance of purpose and plurality in care practices.
