University governance is an essential but complex phenomenon, even
in countries where institutional-level governance has a long and
strong tradition. After the dissolution of the USSR, each of the 15
former Soviet countries developed their own university governance
system and this groundbreaking book explores how these countries
evolved from the 'common start' of a unified and tightly controlled
higher education system, to shaping their own paths in higher
education. Each chapter explores a different country, allowing
university governance models to be compared and contrasted. The
countries provide examples of a variety of different governance
models – state-extended, academic focused, internal/external and
civic – and the book highlights the advantages and disadvantages
of each relative to their context. It also presents innovative
frameworks to understand governance effectiveness in terms of
autonomy, competition, and capacity. It is essential reading for
researchers, students, and policy makers. This title is also
available as open access on Cambridge Core.
