对市场化高等教育中价值的主导意义进行了批判性分析。在政策方面，这已经受到衡量市场逻辑的影响，价值已成为经济回报和机构责任的代名词。关于高等教育的目的，以及高等教育给个人和整个社会带来的好处，很多讨论都涉及到价值的概念。然而，这在很大程度上仍然是隐含的，挖掘价值（和价值）的具体含义显然提出了挑战。本文批判性地考察了与高等教育价值讨论相关的各种概念，包括价值与质量、消费主义、商品和性能之间的关系。在每个案例中，它都揭示了它们对学生和机构之间关系的意义和影响，特别是在这种关系被视为越来越具有交易性的时候。然后，它概述了另一种价值框架，以取代在市场驱动的政策中普遍存在的功利主义的“物有所值”。
A critical analysis is developed of the dominant meanings of value in marketised higher education. In policy terms, this has become informed by the logics of the measured market whereby value has become synonymous with economic return and institutional accountability. The notion of value is one which permeates many discussions on the purpose of higher education and the perceived benefits it confers onto individuals and society as a whole. This, however, remains largely implicit and unearthing the specific meaning of value (and values) clearly presents challenges. This article critically examines a variety of concepts relevant to discussion of the value of higher education, including the relationship between value and quality, consumerism, goods and performativity. In each case, it unpacks their meanings and implications for the relationship between students and institutions, particularly at a time when this is seen to be increasingly transactional. It then outlines an alternative value framing to the utilitarian ‘value for money’ so prevalent in much market-driven policy.
