This open access Handbook offers a unique and unprecedented global
comparative account of student representation in higher education.
It provides a systematic and structured range of specially
commissioned chapters reflecting on the history, contemporary
practices and current debates on student representation in higher
education. The chapters analyse the organisational characteristics
and political activities of representative student associations
within multilevel governance of higher education and map
opportunities for student representatives to influence higher
education institutions and higher education policies. The Handbook
re-examines and further develops the existing theoretical concepts
and analytical lenses in existing research on systems of student
representation and organisational models of student representative
associations. It depicts empirical insights from 30 countries from
all world regions, from 6 regional student federations and the
Global Student Forum. The volume is unique in bringing together
established scholars with a highly diverse group of current and
former student leaders, specially trained and empowered to conduct
research for this Handbook. This is a major contribution to the
study of higher education, and politics and governance of higher
education specifically. The ebook editions of this book are
available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on
