This book looks at the role of the university in a social and economic context, as a repository of knowledge and a site for instruction. It considers how universities are founded,, funded, governed, lead, and managed, how the advent of increased fees has affected their relationship with students, and what is in the future for higher education.

This book aims to understand the development of higher education over recent decades by exploring in particular the context and consequences of the decline in public funding to support undergraduate teaching, and the increasing diversification and stratification within national systems.
