Description

Higher Education, Public Good and Markets by Jandhyala B. G. Tilak explores the major trends in higher education development, examining how liberalisation, globalisation, and marketisation have led to a crisis in this sector across advanced and emerging societies. The author argues that the notion of higher education as a public good is under serious contestation, and that its compelling nature needs to be resurrected. This book provides a broad portrayal of global developments, comparative perspectives, and key lessons, making it an essential read for scholars and researchers in education, political science, public policy, governance, development studies, economics, and those working in the higher education sectors. This volume will offer valuable insights into the current state of higher education and its implications for public policy and planning. It is a worthwhile read for anyone seeking to understand the complexities of this issue and its relevance to policymakers, think-tanks, NGOs, and other stakeholders.
