传统上,大学一直被理解为在社会世界中承担着特殊地位的术语--不知何故脱离了它们发现自己所在的地方。然而,人们也越来越多地期望它们为地区发展做出一些贡献。本文借助经济及社会研究理事会的一个项目的证据,探讨了认识到高等教育政策地理位置变化的重要性的一些含义。它强调了大学在多大程度上植根于其区域和地方,同时也与更广泛的一系列关系相联系的方式。
Traditionally, universities have been understood in terms that assume their special status within the social world – somehow divorced from the places within which they find themselves. Yet they are also increasingly expected to make some contribution to regional development. With the help of evidence drawn from an Economic and Social Research Council project, this article sets out to explore some of the implications of recognising the importance of the changing policy geographies of higher education. It highlights the extent to which and considers the ways in which universities are embedded within their regions and localities, while also being connected to a wider set of relationships.
