Description

The recent decade brought about new ways of thinking about universities.

European-level educational policies became increasingly influential as the agenda of university reforms was viewed as part of greater Lisbon strategy reforms.

National governments adopted the economic concept of the university consistently developed in subsequent official documents of the European Commission.

The EU member states currently need to balance their educational policies between the requirements of policies promoted by the EU and the requirements of their national systems.

Additionally, the national educational policies are under high pressure due to globalisation.

European universities and European academics operate in the midst of these large-scale changes.

Their interpretations of and their responses to what is termed «the modernisation agenda of European universities» are at the core of this volume.
