The university between passion and pressure: thinking, leading and teaching in the 21st century by Yves Flückiger

The article titled 'Die Universität zwischen Leidenschaft und Druck: Denken, führen und vermitteln im 21.

It explores themes of leadership, teaching, and communication within higher education institutions, highlighting the need for balance between intellectual freedom and institutional demands. The book appears to examine how universities navigate these complex dynamics while maintaining their core mission of knowledge dissemination and critical thinking.
