Rational Reflection on the Academic Profession of University Teachers under the Trend of Academic Capitalism
Under the impact of academic capitalism,university teachers face conflicts in their ac-ademic profession between"fostering virtue through education"and"acting as knowledge employ-ers","truth-seeking scholars"and"profit-driven researchers","serving society"and"chasing capi-tal",and"cultural leaders"and"cultural conformists".These conflicts have led to the erosion of their image as"morality educators",the distortion of their ultimate pursuit as"knowledge creators",the alienation of their motivation as"academic entrepreneurs,"and the deviation from their orienta-tion as"value exemplars".To clearly define the boundaries between academia and capital,and ad-dress the resultant professional crisis,university teachers should remain committed to their founda-tional mission of fostering virtue through education,uphold the academic core of their profession,follow the path of academic entrepreneurship,embrace their cultural responsibilities,and work towards optimizing the institutional environment for academic development.
