It describes how the crisis of the Polish academia was defined and what solutions were proposed. It is also an attempt to show how ministry of science tried to delegitimize academic’s right to self-diagnosis and discussion. I claim, that reform was a fulfillment of New Public Management paradigm, that results in two phenomenon. Firstly, reform was attractive for young scholars and gave them promise of emancipation. Secondly, solutions of the reform are derived from general position of Polish economics as global periphery.  }, doi = {10.4467/20843860PK.16.014.5366}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/przeglad-kulturoznawczy/article/czy-uniwersytet-to-juz-firma-krytyczna-analiza-dyskursu-na-temat-reformy-szkolnictwa-wyzszego-w-polsce-w-latach-2008-2013} }
