Managing neo-liberalism with Chinese characteristics: The rise of education markets and Higher education governance in China     

《International Journal of Educational Development》2021

Reviewing the massification of higher education in China in the last two decades, this article critically examines how the education markets have emerged and developed in China through engagements with three major minban HEIs for addressing different development needs of the country. More specifically, this article discusses 1) the rise of minban (people-run) higher education developed by different local social forces; 2) the invitation of overseas universities to co-develop transnational education programmes for meeting citizens’ pressing demands for higher education; 3) the engagements of leading institutions from overseas for research capacity advancement. Through the analysis of these different types of non-state-run HEIs, we would appreciate how the Chinese government has skilfully transformed its higher education systems through the tactical adoption of neoliberal practices for education market formation in the country. The present article also reflects upon the unique university governance model in China, clearly revealing how state-university relationship has been affected by the unique and strong historical, political, and institutional traditions of the country.  相似文献   

Towards a network governance of European lifelong learning: a structural analysis of Commission expert groups     

Marcella Milana  Gosia Klatt  Luigi Tronca 《International Journal of Lifelong Education》2020,39(1):31-47

ABSTRACT

The influence of the European Commission (EC) expert groups on policy coordination within the European Union has received a growing interest among researchers, who have assessed their role in policy-making processes, their participation patterns, their transparency, and their knowledge-generating process. This article interrogates the structural configuration of the networks, and the relationships between the actors, formed through the Commission expert groups on adult learning, and under the Education and Training 2020 work programme, respectively, by means of a Social Network Analysis. So attention is paid on the mutual-constitutivness of a social network and its members, or the potential power within a network, and of a network, to influence member states’ domestic adaptation of communitarian policies. Our analysis points at noticeable differences between the connectivity of each of the Commission expert groups, and the groups emerging from the two forms of network governance these produce in the adult learning, and education and training domains. A key result, however, is that two actors (i.e. Flemish Department for Education and Training, Ministry of Education and Culture of Finland) stand out as fully embedded in both forms of network governance, and represent highly connected ‘informal’ brokers across policy domains.  相似文献

The ‘grand simulation’ and dreams of success by assessment: Baudrillardian reflections on (trans-)national school policy     

John Benedicto Krejsler 《教育政策杂志》2021,36(1):24-43

ABSTRACT

Since the 1990s, European school policy has been steered by management dreams that systematic monitoring and assessment would guide schools and society toward a future of greater quality, efficiency, and growth. This article, drawing on Jean Baudrillard, explores whether it makes sense to rearticulate this dream of optimization by assessment in terms of a ‘grand simulation’ that brings into circulation a play of signs in terms of global quantifiable comparability supported by the aura of objectivity, statistics and big data. Does this dream of optimization suck us into a virtual world of ‘ingrowing obesity,’ where an uninterrupted supply of statistics and digital platforms loosens our grip on the real by the alchemical use of numbers, algorithms, and signs? The article argues that by observing school policy as seductive effects of a larger crisis-producing and competition-motivating (self-)assessment simulation, it becomes possible to rearticulate a persistent trend in (trans)national school policies in a language different from this trend’s own self-referencing logic – and thus to question the trend itself. Danish school policy demonstrates as a European national case how the simulation changed local educational traditions by building up a national curriculum that made schools and students comparable and hereby amenable to increased assessment.  相似文献

The PISA calendar: Temporal governance and international large-scale assessments     

Joakim Landahl 《Educational Philosophy and Theory》2020,52(6):625-639

Abstract

This article analyses international large-scale assessments in education from a temporal perspective. The article discusses and compares the different conceptions of time in the early international assessments conducted in the 1960s and 1970s by the IEA with the PISA studies conducted by the OECD from the year 2000 onwards. The paper argues that there has been a shift in the ways that the assessments structure time. The early IEA surveys were characterized by a relative slowness, lack of synchronization and lack of trend analyses. PISA, by contrast, is characterized by high pace, simultaneous publication of results around the world and regular and recurrent studies making the analysis of trends possible. The emergence of this new time regime, it is argued, has implications for how education is governed. At the transnational level, it strengthens the influence and importance of OECD as a significant policy actor. At the national level, as educational discourse and policy adapts to the temporalities of the PISA calendar, two kinds of effects can be distinguished. First, there is a tendency towards searching for “retrotopian” solutions for contemporary problems. Second, there is a tendency towards acceleration and short-term planning when it comes to educational reforms.  相似文献   

俄罗斯体制转型的路径分析     

黄军甫 《华东师范大学学报(哲学社会科学版)》2003,35(5):42-48

关于俄罗斯体制的路径选择，国际学术界盛行两种互为对立的观点。一种观点认为，俄罗斯社会独立之后，其体制转型的路径选择是权威主义的；另一种观点则认为，俄罗斯独立不久即选择了西方的代议民主制。事实上，俄罗斯体制转型的路径选择既不是权威主义也不是代议民主，而是介乎于二之间被称为委任民主的独特的政治形式。它从前继承了巩固权力的非民主方式，从后承袭了自由竞选。俄罗斯这一独特体制是其社会转型新的路径依赖的起点，也是我们据以判断其内外政策未来走向的基础。  相似文献   

大学评教“共谋”行为及其治理路径     

蒋贵友  郭丽君 《大学教育科学》2020,(2):105-110

随着高校教学评价的管理主义倾向不断强化,基层教学单位与教师在执行上级组织的评教政策时共同谋划,以应对各项教学检查与突发状况,这种共谋行为并不鲜见。大学评教共谋行为根植于复杂的组织制度环境,它的出现与重复再生是高校制度环境与评教实施之间的不兼容所导致的产物,在很大程度上也是高校集权决策、教学惩治机制强化以及组织制度理性化所导致的非预期结果。然而,这一非正式行为在周期性生发过程中逐渐合法化与制度化,并以不同形式存在于教学评价的各个环节。为此,高校应从外部规范的管理制度与内部平衡的发展机制两个层面来共同构建大学评教运行的有序局面。  相似文献
