The evolution of higher education in Europe within the setting of the
decade 1985 to 1995 is examined. The article focuses on three
dimensions which have served to mould the pattern of higher education
during these ten years. These aspects are the quickening pace of
international exchange and its implications for the exporting of higher
education models; the drive towards delegating responsibility away from
central administration down to the regional level of government and,
finally, the issue of the accompanying shift in political values and
political theory which is involved in reassessing the role of the State
in higher education. Guy Neave
Key words: European Higher Education, Regionalisation, University's Autonomy, Managerialism, Market Forces.
