Mass to Market Higher Education SystemsNew
Transition or False Dawn?
  • Peter Scott
  • Professor of Higher Education Studies
  • p.scott_at_ioe.ac.uk

3
My argument in brief
  • Mass higher education systems were developed in
    the context of the welfare state / social
    market. But since the 1980s new socio-economic
    (and ideological) conditions have emerged and
    HE systems have struggled to adapt
  • Higher education systems seem to be evolved
    towards the market student fees,
    institutional competition, the global knowledge
    economy and new organisational cultures
    (managerialism). But what kind of market?
