Description

Throughout the industrialised world, universities have undergone remarkable changes since the mid-1980s.

In Australia, interest has been intense, and publication of The Enterprise University was very timely.

First published in 2001, it was the first systematic study of the Australian system since the momentous Dawkins reforms ten years earlier.

The book is grounded in case studies of most of the major Australian universities: the authors interviewed a large number of senior managers.

They also have taken account of global trends and have prepared the book in the light of international research on the university as an institution.

The authors contend that the modern university can be understood as an 'enterprise university', characterised by corporate-style executive leadership.

In a hard-hitting conclusion they propose novel policies and directions for Australia's higher education system.
