If you want to know whether common problems and challenges faced by higher education systems in different European countries lead to similar solutions, urgently read this book. It will help you to understand why and how apparent convergences in discourses hide increasing divergences at the level of national policymaking and university governance.
Christine Musselin, Sciences Po, CSO, CNRS, France
An excellent account of current developments in European higher education. The authors’ international experience assures breadth of knowledge and balanced judgement. Wide-ranging interviews impart freshness, immediacy and humanity to their analysis. A book to savour and enjoy.

The growing diversification in applying the NPM model among the higher education systems of continental Europe and in particular with reference to the UK is described with special accuracy thanks in particular to a wide field - research which allows it to bring out the different pressures of nation-states on universities.

The Bloomsbury Higher Education Research series provides the evidence-based academic output of the world’s leading research centre on higher education, the ESRC/RE Centre for Global Higher Education (CGHE) in the UK. The core focus of CGHE’s work and of The Bloomsbury Higher Education Research series is higher education, especially the future of higher education in the changing global landscape. The emergence of CGHE reflects the remarkable growth in the role and importance of universities and other higher education institutions, and research and science, across the world. Corresponding to CGHE’s projects, monographs in the series will consist of social science research on global, international, national and local aspects of higher education, drawing on methodologies in education, learning theory, sociology, economics, political science and policy studies. Monographs will be prepared so as to maximise worldwide readership and selected on the basis of their relevance to one or more of higher education policy, management, practice and theory. Topics will range from teaching and learning and technologies, to research and research impact in industry, national system design, the public good role of universities, social stratification and equity, institutional governance and management, and the cross-border mobility of people, institutions, programmes, ideas and knowledge. The Bloomsbury Higher Education Research series is at the cutting edge of world research on higher education.
