This vigorous study provides an alternative framework for
reflecting on the changes in Western Europe's higher education
systems over the past quarter century. Building from two basic
concepts -- the rise of the evaluative state and the shifts in
meaning and definition of positional and institutional autonomy -
it dissects the profound shifts in the external relationship
between higher education, government and society. Changes in
external relationships demands radical revision to the internal
balance of power. Re-distribution of authority and responsibility
re-define the functions thatboth institutional and positional
autonomy are expected to assume. Drawing on rich data from France,
Spain and Portugal, this book also examines the role in the rise of
the evaluative state played by such pioneering systems as Britain,
France and the Netherlands. It demonstrates the centrality the two
key concepts have for higher education policy in Western Europe
today and charts how autonomy has mutated from being of integral
value in higher education to becoming an instrument of policy.
