  Governance of Higher Education: Global Perspectives

  Theories and Perspectives

  Governance of Higher Education explores the work of traditional and contemporary higher education scholarship worldwide

  providing readers with an understanding of the assumptions

  historical traditions

  and paradigms that have shaped the scholarship on governance. Bringing together the vast and disparate writings that form the higher education governance literature―including frameworks drawn from a range of disciplines and global scholarship―this book synthesizes the significant theoretical

  conceptual

  and empirical scholarship to advance the research and practice of governance. Coverage includes the structures of governance

  cultures and practices

  the collegial tradition

  the new managed environment of the academy

  and the politics and processes of governance. As universities across the globe face a myriad of challenges and multiple stakeholder demands

  Governance of Higher Education offers scholars

  practitioners

  and higher education graduate students an essential resource for advancing research and the practice of governance.

  Academic Work in Canada: Perceptions of Early Career Academics.

  Abstract: This paper argues that a number of structural characteristics that emerged as a function of the transition to mass higher education have served to stymie the development of government quality assurance mechanisms

  including the decentralization of higher education policy

  the development of a relatively homogeneous university sector

  and the limited policy capacity of provincial ministries. The development of new types of degrees

  combined with an expansion of degree-authority to new institutional types have led to the emergence of new quality mechanisms in several provinces designed to assess the quality of new degrees

  but it is the universities that continue to play the central role in terms of quality assurance.
