Interpretations of academic freedom : a historical investigationBaloyi, Colonel Rex 11 1900 (has links)
This dissertation is a study of academic freedom, an issue which is regarded as a precondition for the university's successful execution of its task, namely the advancement
and dissemination of knowledge. To understand what academic freedom really implies
and entails, a historical review was undertaken of the various interpretations of academic
freedom in the Medieval Italy and France, Imperial Germany, the late 19th century and
the 20th century American and South African universities. As an ideal, academic freedom
implies the free but responsible search for knowledge and truth. The historical review
revealed, however, that academic freedom has at times been misunderstood and abused. The realisation of true academic freedom in South African universities was the motivating
force behind this study. Therefore, this study is concluded with guidelines and
recommendations grounded in the historical review that will hopefully promote academic
freedom in South African universities. / Educational Studies / D. Ed. (History of Education)
