Synopsis

Using higher education institutional case studies from Britain, Australia, New Zealand and Hong Kong, this text explores the changes which have taken place therein from the mid-1980s to the late-1990s. The contributors identify the major factors that brought about the decisions to abandon the binary divide between polytechnic universities adopted between 1967 and 1972, and examine the environments into which the newly designated universities emerged. These universities are considered in terms of: their new status and role; their response to the internationalization of higher education; and the extent to which they are modelling themselves on the older universities. The text should also provide insight into the similarities and differences between developments in the four national systems examined.
