Development And Governance Of Private Universities In China

de Xu Liu

145,09€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This book investigates the form and features of governance and the factors that shape governance in practice in private universities in China. Building on an exploration of the growth of private universities in China after the Communist Party took over the power, the study examines the specific context in China, including the role of the Communist Party, and integrates with shareholders and senior managers to achieve its governance role. It shows that two distinct forms of institutional governance have developed, namely the supervision form and the managerial form. While external policies provide an impetus for change for each university, how key actors in institutional governance understand these policies have significant effect on how the policies are implemented. This can result in change that can be viewed as either symbolic alteration or as operational change. The internal factors that act to shape institutional governance mainly relate to the different developmental stages of theprivate university, the characteristics of shareholders and senior managers, and the various ways the universities respond to the external policy.

Role Differentiation In Chinese Higher Education - Tensions Between Political Socialization And Academic Autonomy

de Xiaoxin Du

145,09€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 <div>This book examines tensions between the Chinese state and Chinese universities. It looks at the state’s demand for political socialization as a restriction on university autonomy and the university’s promotion of academic development through promoting academic freedom and fostering critical thinkers, using Jour University in PRC, as a case study.</div><div><br></div><div>The book focuses on the dynamics and complexity of the interplay between the state, universities, faculty, staff and students in the process of socialization through political education and academic affairs. Theories on political socialization and higher education guide this study. As universities’ socio-political task of imbuing students with a certain type of ideology coexists with their role of promoting university autonomy, examining China’s higher education system provides important insights as different players’ interaction. These present a dynamic picture of role differentiation as a strategy to cope with apolitically restricted autonomy, which challenges some common stereotypes that have been put on Chinese universities within the global community.</div><p></p>
