Governance of European Higher Education

<i>The Governance of European Higher Education: Convergence or Divergence</i> analyses governance at state and institutional levels in five European higher education systems chosen as representative of European higher education as a whole: Germany Hungary Norway Portugal and the UK (as in England Scotland and Wales). Drawing on 180 detailed face-to-face interviews with policymakers and universities the book explores the extent to which governance and systems have been converging or diverging towards or away from a common European model over the last decade and records the evidence of growing directional controls exercised by the various states.
