Reform and Change in Higher Education - International Perspectives

Summary

The relationship between governments and universities has vacillated between control and autonomy, symbiosis and laissez-faire, mutual respect and suspicion. This volume of original articles views the issues of higher-education reform within a contemporary and international context to see how relationships have changed within the industrialized nations of the free world and the former communist bloc. There are ten case studies: Britain, Israel, Australia, South Korea, the United States, the former East Germany, Hungary, Poland, and the Czech and Slovak Republics. An important feature of this work is that it is up to date and includes the most recent statistics. Such statistics have traditionally been unavailable or difficult to obtain, especially for Eastern Europe. An index is provided.
