Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This bookaddresses the critical knowledge gaps of mergers involving higher education institutions. It is based on a comparative research project (spring 2013-spring 2015) investigating the phenomena of mergers involving higher education institutions across the Nordic countries - Norway, Sweden, Finland and Denmark. The study involved close to 30 scholars from the region, and aimed at shedding critical light on, and providing novel contributions around, the following key aspects:Conceptual and theoretical approaches - strengths and limitations - towards the study of the phenomena of mergers in higher education;Historical developments, leading to significant structural changes in the domestic higher education landscape, and, in turn, how mergers have been used as a policy/institutional mechanism to foster adaptation to a new external environment at the local, national, regional and international levels;The complex dynamicsinherent to merger processesby undertaking an in-depth investigation of a series of selected case studies, with a particular focus on the 'black-box' associated with the implementation process; The implications of the findings as regards future policy and strategic endeavours, theory development and future research agenda.…

Condition: Sehr gut. Zustand: Sehr gut | Seiten: 444 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | Springer is proud to announce that 'Universities in the Knowledge Society' has received the ASHE-CIHE award for Significant Research on International Higher Education. Congratulations to Timo Aarrevaara, Martin Finkelstein, Glen A. Jones, Jisun Jung and all contributors! This book explores the complex, multi-faceted relationships between national research and innovation systems and higher education. The transition towards knowledge societies/economies is repositioning the role of the university and transforming the academic profession. The volume provides a foundational introduction to the concepts of knowledge society and knowledge economy, and these concepts ground the detailed case studies of eighteen systems, located across five continents. Each case study was written by a leading expert in that jurisdiction, and provides a critical analysis of the research and development infrastructure, the role of universities, and the implications for the academic profession. The book describes how nations in various geographic regions and at various stages of economic maturity are restructuring their university systems to adapt to the new imperatives, and provides a cross-case analysis identifying common themes and distinctive features. In telling the story of higher education¿s on-going global metamorphosis, the contributing authors place current developments in the context of the university¿s historic evolution, survey the changing metrics that national governments are adopting to measure university performance, and describe a new international project, the Academic Profession in the Knowledge-based Society [APiKS] that involved a common survey of academics in more than twenty countries to take the pulse of developments ¿on the ground¿ while documenting the challenges confronting knowledge workers in the new economy. …
