Higher Education Policy in Developing and Western Nations: Contemporary and Emerging Trends in Local and Global Contexts de Beverly Lindsay

Higher Education Policy in Developing and Western Nations: Contemporary and Emerging Trends in Local and Global Contexts: Routledge Research in Higher Education

Autor Beverly Lindsay
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 sep 2023
Recognizing that institutes of higher education function simultaneously in local and global contexts, this volume explores the applications of domestic and global policies in a range of industrialized nations in North America and Australia, and developing ones of Brazil, Indonesia, Myanmar, and in Southern Africa and the Caribbean
The chapters focus on policies relating to global matters such as diversity, STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) innovations, and development amid natural disasters and conflicts. In each case, authors consider how policies were envisioned, how they compare to the realities of implementation, and how far they have been successfully supported by the communities and translated into legislations and formal or informal programs. Based upon decades of research and executive positions by senior scholars and perspectives of emerging professionals, the volume concentrates on motifs that portray relationships among policies and comparative analysis that reveals the need for global collaborations.
This important book will be of great interest to researchers, scholars, postgraduates, and government and philanthropic professionals in the fields of higher education, public and educational policy, comparative education, and international affairs.

Recenzii

"This book represents an excellent collection of essays on the global politics of higher education. Its main strength lies in its comparative orientation, exploring similarities and differences in the trends and emerging challenges across developing and the more established systems of higher education. On a more optimistic note, the book points to the importance of transnational collaborations in realizing the many opportunities that are now open - especially via the concepts and new practices of intellectual migration as aptly articulated by Professor Lindsay."
— Fazal Rizvi, Professor, The University of Melbourne, Australia, and Professor Emeritus, The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, USA
"This original collection promises to be a major contribution to the field of international higher education. The assembled chapters cover a wide range of countries and topics, situated within and responsive to the global crises of the COVID pandemic and catastrophic climate change. I especially commend Dr. Lindsay for bringing together such an outstanding group of well-established scholars and emerging, newer scholars. The established scholars bring substantial perspective on historic trends within the field, and the emerging scholars focus our attention on issues that will play out for the next several decades. All told, an impressive set of chapters."
— Gretchen B. Rossman, Professor Emerita, University of Massachusetts-Amherst, USA
"There are books that one simply cannot afford to miss. This is an excellent resource book, that is a thoughtful and unique collection from seasoned researchers and authors. It is loaded with amazing insights that will inspire executives, professors, and students to enhance their knowledge of critical domestic and international policies. It is, undoubtedly, a must read for all in higher education and public policy in settings throughout the world."
— Elizabeth Ardayfio-Schandorf, former Vice President of the Ghana Academy of Arts and Sciences, Ghana
