In recent years, America's position of leadership in the world has
been challenged in many ways. One significant shift is that the
country's position as the preeminent global leader in higher
education, particularly in the fields of science and technology,
has come into question. "American Universities in a Global Market"
comprises eleven studies addressing the variety of issues crucial
to understanding this change. The studies examine 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.
They also explore the advantages of holding a dominant position in
this marketplace and examine the current state of American higher
education in a comparative context, placing particular emphasis on
how market forces affect universities. Other essays explore the
differences in quality among students and institutions around the
world and shed light on the singular aspects of American higher
education.
