This book asks how modern universities are organized and managed,
and questions whether 30 years of university reforms have resulted
in stronger managerial structures and leadership control. It
further asks whether current organisational and decision-making
structures can be explained by public reform policies. The book
offers a coherent, empirically grounded and theoretically driven
presentation of data and core ideas behind a large scale
comparative study of 26 universities across eight European
countries. It focuses on the strength of university managerial
structures, the role of academics, and how universities relate to
and depend on their environment: to governments and other actors;
to funders; to evaluators; and to external stakeholders. It further
explores how higher education policies are shaped by and affect
universities. Written by a cross-disciplinary team of European
scholars, this book is unique both in its wide coverage and the
depth of its analyses. It will be of great interest to scholars,
graduate students and advanced undergraduates in the fields of
organisation theory and sociology, policy studies, comparative
public policy and administration, and higher education studies. It
will also be of interest to higher education policy makers and
administrators.
