A Philosophical Contemplation on University Idea in the Future of Post-COVID-19 World 279 304 10987 10.22034/jpiut.2020.39734.2551 FA Reza Mahoozi Associate Prof. Institute of social and Cultural Studies. Iran. Tehran. Journal Article 2020 05 09 Educational neo-liberalism gradually alternated the university patterns in recent seven decades, especially, final two decades of 21th century, and emerged as a powerful hegemony in education and research; A hegemony that serves the liberal capital market and supports the economic development programs with liberal education and research. Nowadays, by a tiny, but powerful, pandemic of coronavirus, it seems this academic system has lost its credibility. This paper intends to explore the history of dominant academic systems in two recent century - as of German Humboldtian University, British education-based university, and French technical and national-oriented university. While trying to explain the neo-liberalism education thought, it also analyzes the question that “Does the recent pattern can endure before radical critics of oppositions?” If not, what would be the alternative to this dominant global system? The author believes that the explained independency in Kant's pattern of the university, capacities that critical realism provides for educational neo-liberalism, and accuracy of this system in applying the critics of oppositions for the reconstruction of itself could help to its survival and reconstruction of self in a flexible manner. However, we have to wait for the next world climate changes in response to the Covid-19 pandemic.
