Résumé

UK academics are frequently exhorted to integrate a European (and global) perspective into their syllabuses, especially where their students are drawn from a wide variety of national backgrounds. But this is difficult when there is a dearth of detailed, accessible contemporary accounts of national practices elsewhere. This edited book goes a very long way to help them. It offers detailed, rigorously researched descriptions of the nature and effects on higher education of its “marketisation” – descriptions rooted in robust theoretical and conceptual frameworks which help the reader situate the descriptions in their own context.’ – Paul Trowler, Lancaster University, UK
