Abstract: | The last decade has marked the European higher education with a particular dynamics. Today, after a decade of a "concerted" policy, national systems look much more convergent but new questions and dilemmas are emerging: about its nature. The book examines the impact of Europe-wide and global developments on national higher education. |
