In higher education, the United States is the preeminent global
leader, dominating the list of the world's top research
universities. But there are signs that America's position of global
leadership will face challenges in the future, as it has in other
realms of international competition. "American Universities in a
Global Market" addresses the variety of issues crucial to
understanding this preeminence and this challenge. The book
examines the various factors that contributed to America's success
in higher education, including openness to people and ideas,
generous governmental support, and a tradition of decentralized
friendly competition. It also explores the advantages of holding a
dominant position in this marketplace and examines the current
state of American higher education in a comparative context,
placing particular emphasis on how market forces affect
universities. By discussing the differences in quality among
students and institutions around the world, this volume sheds light
on the singular aspects of American higher education.
