Monasteries of Modernity explores the corruption within contemporary universities and the global patterns that emerge around these institutions. The book argues that modern universities increasingly function as institutions that serve the ideological purposes of modernity—a belief system that has taken on the qualities of a pervasive, almost religious orthodoxy. In drawing a historical parallel, it suggests that modern universities resemble the monasteries of the late scholastic period, where intellectual life was often shaped by strict doctrines. While this comparison is not made to argue a direct equivalence, it invites reflection on how these institutions, once seen as centers of independent thought, may now serve as guardians of a particular worldview.
