The higher education and research system faces a constant dilemma. On the one hand, research and higher education are run by autonomous, interrelated academic communities, often described as collegial governance. On the other hand, they are an instrument for the fulfillment of goals that are often external to the academic community. What, then, is the role of academics and academic knowledge in governance of higher education and research, and how does this reflect on and impact their aims and overall place in society? Fostered through joint workshops and an open dialogue, this double volume of Research in the Sociology of Organizations develops a deeper understanding of collegiality, examining through a unique comparative perspective how it is translated and practiced in different settings across the world. Concentrating on challenges to collegiality and the erosion of faculty governance, this first installment analyzes global waves of reforms, ways in which various kinds of managerial modes of organization and control come to reshape universities, and how this intersects with the evolving missions of universities as institutions. Revealing the globalization, homogenization and variation that have come to characterize the collegiate system, University Collegiality and the Erosion of Faculty Authority critically considers the state of and future of the higher education system, and how we can consciously shape it moving forward. 2023-12-14T16:59:18Z 2023-12-14T16:59:18Z 2024 book ONIX_20231214_9781804558140_8 9781804558140 9781804558164 9781804558171 https://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/86171 eng Research in the Sociology of Organizations application/pdf application/epub+zip n/a Attribution 4.0 International 9781804558140.pdf 9781804558164.epub Emerald Publishing Emerald Publishing Limited 7a29cc03-8a4f-45a6-b05d-e88901e20f36 9f44aad5-233b-4588-946e-68b62ed80b3f 9781804558140 9781804558164 9781804558171 Emerald Publishing Limited 86 296 Bingley [...] open access
