In this volume, which combines historical context, anthropological and sociological theory, and ethnological research based on the author's own experience, Murray J. Leaf argues that a university is a community unto itself. To maintain that designation, its faculty must have academic freedom-a stipulation hinging upon faculty governance. Applying anthropological organizational theory, Academic Democracy in America sets out a model for a successful governance structure: it must be democratic, with clearly divided functions between the faculty and administration, and a clear relationship between the faculty and university policy. In so doing, it examines four leading U.S. academic institutions in which faculty have developed and maintain successful faculty governance organizations and systems of shared governance. Though they differ from each other in important ways, taken together, they construct a set of natural experiments to test alternative (effective) notions of faculty and shared governance.
