Deleuze and Rorty on hope: Educating hope against neoliberalism

Received 13 Nov 2020, Accepted 16 Aug 2021, Published online: 29 Aug 2021
Abstract

The introduction of corporate mode into universities with the widespread of neoliberalism has posed threats to intellectuals’ academic creativity and political sensitivity. To respond to the threats, I argue that it is high time we talk about educating hope. Moreover, I contend that Richard Rorty and Gilles Deleuze’s theories on hope can be of great help in understanding the complexity and exquisiteness of hope—non-representational and non-metaphysical, dependent on contingent encounters, transformative and political.
