本文探讨了在日益全球化的创意经济和国际文化政策转变的背景下,新加坡在过去十年中的高等教育发展和政策转变。通过对政策和高等教育机构主要参与者的定性访谈,本文旨在解释创新高等教育投资背后的推动和拉动因素。它认为,在一个高等教育与经济发展互动的社会中,新兴的动力和多样化的模式具有悠久的历史和务实的理论基础。尽管这些投资仍处于早期阶段,但白皮书认为,我们可以从新加坡的案例中吸取一些全球政策教训,以及高等教育在发展创意经济方面可以发挥的作用,同时努力克服供应过剩和创意职业天生脆弱的问题。
This paper explores higher education development and policy shifts in Singapore over the last decade, within a landscape of an increasingly globalised creative economy and international cultural policy transfer. Using qualitative interviews with key players in policy and higher education institutions, the paper aims to explain the push and pull factors behind investment in creative higher education. It considers the emerging dynamics and diverse patterns, embedded in a society where higher education interactions with economic development have a long history and pragmatic rationale. While still in the early days of these investments, the paper argues that there are some global policy lessons to be learnt from the case of Singapore and the role that higher education can play in developing a creative economy, while striving to overcome issues of over-supply and innate vulnerability of creative careers.
