Higher Education In The Post-Communist World Case Studies Of Eight Universities | Education

Originally published in 1999 Higher Education in the Post-Communist World focuses on specific public universities during their and their nations’ early transition years (1989-1995) from communism to democracy and the changes from centrally planned to free-market economies. The book offers a detailed view of universities in transition rather than case studies of entire systems of higher education providing an opportunity for readers to understand the national politico-economic transition on higher education– individual faculty students and administrator; departments; and university – in a more immediate way than a system-wide approach would. The book presents information on specific universities and how the demise of the Soviet Union affected the governance finance faculty students and curriculum in several post-communist countries. |Higher Education in the Post-Communist World Case Studies of Eight Universities | Education
