This book makes both empirical and conceptual contributions to the
debate on privatization of higher education in China. Empirically,
it aims to fill a gap in our knowledge of privatization of higher
education in North China. To this end, Beijing was chosen as a case
for analysis, and nine local higher educational institutions were
visited. The case study strategy is also complemented by an
extensive review of national policies to reveal problems beyond the
specific case of Beijing and of national concern. The effects of
the cultural and socioeconomic background and the unique
state-party controlling system on higher education management are
stressed. Conceptually, most existing studies on privatization of
higher education in China adopt a policy analysis approach, while
research on privatization of other public sectors or in other
countries is frequently guided by economic theories. This book thus
seeks to combine both social policy and econometric approaches to
provide a systematic and detailed investigation of the
privatization process in the context of higher education. It also
improves examines the applicability of western theories in the
Chinese context.
