外部因素正在推动高等教育和研究更加私有化,更多地依赖技术,更有效地利用资源。这本书分析了高等教育机构治理和管理的最新变化及其对学院和学术工作的影响。它借鉴了一项国际研究的发现,该研究基于对18个国家的学者的调查。它以一章概述了围绕学术工作和一般职业的当代话语的关键问题,驱动因素和挑战。然后,它将重点放在国家案例研究上,比较国家体系、公立和私立机构的顶层与低层的变化,以及每个国家适合的其他差异化因素,包括成熟的和新兴的高等教育体系。最后,提出了一系列关于当代高等教育机构治理和管理现状的概括。
External drivers are pressing for a more privatized approach to higher education and research, a greater reliance on technology and the more efficient use of resources. This book analyzes recent changes in institutional governance and management in higher education and their impact on the academy and academic work. It draws on findings from an international study based on a survey of academics in eighteen countries. It opens with a chapter outlining the key issues, drivers and challenges that inform contemporary discourse around academic work and the profession in general. It then focuses on national case studies, comparing changes in the top tier with the lower tiers of national systems, public and private institutions, and other differentiating factors appropriate in each country, which include mature and emerging higher education systems. It concludes by proposing a series of generalizations about the contemporary status of governance and management of institutions of higher education.
