Universities and societies around the world are involved in significant transition. Universities are now invited to expand their central aims and purposes in order to embrace a role in relation to the development of the societies in which they are located. This change of focus has major implications for curricula, modes of teaching and the student body. International contributors to this wideranging text discuss different aspects of the phenomenon of globalisation in relation to higher education, but also in relation to moves by nation states to devolve government to regional and subregional bodies and the implications this has for educational systems.
This volume examines how the privatisation of education and the issue of school choice have emerged as significant policy issues in the redefining of education in the former Soviet bloc nations. Contributors discuss both philosophical and practical aspects of the rapid growth of the private sector at all three levels of education in their respective countries. They provide a fascinating look at how Western models of educational reform and innovation are being adapted to suit the needs of nations in the throes of major social and economic transition.
