Virtual(ly) Universities?
An Examination of Two Digitally Contextualised "Universities"
Abstract
This paper will consider how the traditional liberal university and, indeed, civil society arefundamentally changed by a semantic recasting of what constitutes 'knowledge' in aninformation age. Specifically, it will examine two relatively recent examples of digitallycontextualised university structures, the Universitas 21/ Thomson Learning joint venture andthe Malaysian Multimedia University (MMU) in the light of Jean Francois Lyotard's propheticwork on techno-science, performativity and global capital renewal.
