The Humanities and Higher Education.
Duguid, Stephen
Canadian Journal of Higher Education, v14 n1 p41-58 1984
Three groups of contemporary advocates of the humanities in higher education are compared: traditionalists who argue for the implicit worth of the humanities, pragmatists who see them as having real use-value in terms of contemporary social issues, and radicals who see them as a force for social change.
