Higher Education operates in an increasingly global context, and
yet the examination of what drives and moves the field has remained
largely focused on domestic campus leaders, national governments
and institutional actors. International Organizations and Higher
Education Policy expands the analysis to include the global drivers
behind higher education policy, including a full array of
influential organizations such as the World Bank, UNESCO, OECD,
WTO, bilateral aid agencies and major private foundations. The
significance of these organizations is especially pronounced in the
developing world, where the expansion of higher education is
happening in conjunction with the broadening influence of
globalization. International Organizations and Higher Education
Policy critically analyses the impact that these influential
organizations have at different levels of policy development and
implementation around the world. It examines their role in higher
education institutions, examines the strength of these
relationships, and exposes both the positive and negative
implications. This edited volume is composed of scholars and
members of these organizations from around the world. They address:
How international organizations represent the interests of the
developed world and subsequently have an impact on the developing
world. How these organizations drive and shape the global agenda
for higher education How higher education as an international
industry is subject to a myriad of influences, from the
international to the regional level What ethical issues emerge when
international organizations intervene in national policy-making
processes.
