Acerca de esta escucha
Statues and Storms offers a gripping insider’s account of Max Price’s tenure as Vice-Chancellor of the University of Cape Town during a transformative period in South African higher education. In the wake of the Rhodes Must Fall protests, universities across the country were engulfed in sustained and often violent demonstrations, challenging institutional cultures and sparking a global movement.
This book provides a unique perspective on the protests, delving into the reasons behind the decolonizing movement’s emergence at liberal universities two decades after the democratic transition. With a focus on leadership and the difficult decisions leaders must make during rapid transformation, the book also explores enduring themes in academia, including academic and artistic freedom, the limits of protest rights, institutional racism, culture and inclusiveness, and the funding of higher education.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Lessons on leadership in turbulent times
Max Price provides an insider view of the responses to student and protest movements in South Africa during his time at the helm of the University of Cape Town. He does an excellent job of representing the larger political and social forces which determine how individuals exercise their role as leaders on either side of the dialogue - those demanding change and historical reparations as well as those in institutional positions that require upholding a range of stakeholder demands and interests.
The narrative is thoughtful and thought provoking - and is relevant to continued, worldwide debates (in 2025) on the power and extent of academic freedoms.
