This book explores the perceptions of academic staff and
representatives of institutional leadership about the changes in
academic careers and academic work experienced in recent years. It
emphasizes standardisation and differentiation of academic career
paths, impacts of new forms of quality management on academic work,
changes in recruitment, employment and working conditions, and
academics’ perceptions of their professional contexts. The book
demonstrates a growing diversity within the academic profession and
new professional roles inhabiting a space which is neither located
in the core business of teaching and research nor at the top level
management and leadership. The new higher education professionals
tend to be important change agents within the higher education
institutions not only fulfilling service and bridging functions but
also streamlining academic work to make a contribution to the
reputation and competitiveness of the institution as a whole. Based
on interviews with academic staff, this book explores the situation
in eight European countries: Austria, Croatia, Finland, Germany,
Ireland, Poland, Romania, and Switzerland.
