英国高等教育在国际上被认为处于危机之中。在这本书A。H.哈尔西考察了当今形势的发展。从1963年的罗宾斯报告开始，他认为，尽管随后高等教育的扩张，这一倡议代表了对大众高等教育的失败推力。他展示了自由经济政策的兴起如何与学术权力的长期衰落无关，并展示了权力如何从学术界转移到政府，以及作为教育和研究消费者的学生和行业。哈尔西教授的论点得到了1964年、1976年和1989年进行的广泛调查的支持，这些调查描绘了大学和理工学院学术观点的发展。调查显示，学生们士气低落、失望和怨恨;但这些情绪仍然伴随着对英国大学理念的坚定信念。哈尔西教授的讨论和分析提供了有关英国高等教育体系现状的重要信息，并为目前英国政治辩论的中心议题之一的教育和培训政策的激烈辩论做出了重要贡献。
British higher education is internationally perceived as being in crisis. In this book A. H. Halsey examines how the present-day situation developed. Beginning with the 1963 Robbins Report, he argues that, despite the subsequent expansion of higher education, this initiative represented a failed thrust towards mass higher education. He shows how the rise of liberal economic policies was irrelevant to the long-term decline of academic power and demonstrates how power has ebbed away from academics towards government, and towards students and industry as consumers of education and research. Professor Halsey's arguments are buttressed by extensive surveys, carried out in 1964, 1976, and 1989, which chart the development of academic opinion in universities and polytechnics. The survey reveals low morale, disappointment, and resentment; but these feelings are still combined with a persistent belief in the British idea of university. Professor Halsey's discussion and analysis provide vital information about the current state of Britain's higher education system and offer an important contribution to the fierce debate about educational and training policies which is currently one of the central topics of British political debate.
