Paperback. Condition: New. The book describes how universities can serve as stabilising anchors for society amid global uncertainty and accelerating climate change. Integrating Univer-Cities Volumes I through V, it introduces the concept of the Univer-City-a civic-collegiate compact that highlights the enduring bond between universities and the cities they inhabit.The book frames the Univer-City as a modern agora: a dynamic space of engagement and exchange where ideas are debated, knowledge is synthesised, and intellectual and social capital are translated into meaningful civic action. It further extends this idea to a network of interconnected agoras, forming the foundation of a broader Cosmopolis.Drawing on established models from the United States and Europe while engaging with the evolving aspirations of universities across Asia, the book offers a comparative and forward-looking perspective. It concludes by arguing that sustained academic and collegiate leadership is critical to enabling proactive, transdisciplinary responses in an AI-pervasive new millennium.…

Paperback. Condition: New. Building on the second volume of Univer-Cities: Strategic View of the Future - From Berkeley and Cambridge to Singapore and Rising Asia edited by Anthony SC Teo and published in 2015, this third edition presents 12 chapters weaving the dilemmas of strategy and leadership in one of humanity's beloved institutions, the university (with a long view strategy) and the city (a relatively shorter one).Based on the 2016 Univer-Cities conference hosted by the University of Newcastle, contributors of this volume reflect on the deliberations made by the conference participants, including academic leaders from University of Cambridge and University of California, Berkeley, urban architects, policy planners, and public office holders.The book hopes to engage the universities' top leadership in addressing accusations of elitism by re-socialising the varsities with their eco-system. Often criticised for being unresponsive to the pressing and accumulating problems faced by cities and societies, more can be done for universities to exert their socio-economic benefits and contribute to the progress of humankind. It is a call for academic elites to integrate basic research with the universities' strengths in medical disciplines for community advancement, urban planning, innovation systems and regional economic growth.…
