  • Description: The university and the needs of contemporary society are discussed in relationship to the complexity and diversity of the interactions between universities and societies resulting from the diversity of traditions, resources, and socioeconomic contexts. Emphasis is placed on some past and present conceptions of the university, the university and rising needs, and the university and its new responsibilities. The author cautions against the formulation of judgments that are definitive in nature or claim universal applicability. Generalized conclusions are presented covering contradictions of the university, the sociology of the university, the university and violence, university freedoms and democracy, and the university ability to reform itself.
