Pehlivanli, E., Eslen-Ziya, H. (2023) Conceptualizing academic sustainability. Feminist Media Studies. 10.1080/14680777.2023.2280902Abstract
Recently, academia has become an arena of political conflict that results in the corrosion of academic life in general. Restrictions of academic freedom and lack of research autonomy, in addition to standardized success criteria of neoliberal universities, have created an academic reality contributing to hierarchy, competition, anxiety, burn-out, and precariousness. Taking gender studies as a case, we aim to define and conceptualize academic sustainability in relation to attacks on the academic freedom and academic well-being of gender scholars.
