Leadership and Cooperation in Academia focuses on the place and the
role of universities in different societies, including their
influence on the socio-economic development of those
societies.Across the world academic institutions are being
questioned by their stakeholders and pressured to change. Answering
these questions requires that academics and professional managers
in universities think about their work, its value and organisation.
The book highlights the need for space and stimulus to reflect on
the responsibilities, roles and expectations that they identify for
themselves, and that others place upon them - then, they might be
better able to understand and to act. Similarly, policymakers and
higher education commentators need the space and stimulus to
reflect on the role of universities. This book will provide this
space and an invaluable contribution to the stimulus. This
innovative volume will be enriching to academics and professional
managers who are interested in leading, managing and contributing
in an academic environment. Policymakers and higher education
commentators concerned with the development and impacts of
universities will also find plenty of insightful information in
this timely study. Contributors: M.J. Aranguren, D. Bell, G.
