Higher Education Governance in East Asia: Transformations under Neoliberalism (Higher Education in Asia: Quality, Excellence and Governance)

"This book deepens our understanding of how higher education governance has recently changed in the rapidly developing higher education systems of East Asia. Focusing on China, Japan, Korea, Malaysia and Taiwan, it explains the implications of how state-centered political systems interpret political and economic environments such as neoliberalism, as well as how each system is coping with global pressures. The book makes a valuable contribution to organization studies in higher education by investigating and detailing how individual higher education institutions are responding to their new environments." -- Prové de l'editor Front Matter ....Pages i-xii Introduction: Incorporation of National Universities as Governance Reforms (Jung Cheol Shin)....Pages 1-17 Front Matter ....Pages 19-19 Incorporation of National Universities in Japan Under New Public Management (Hideyuki Konyuba)....Pages 21-36 Halfway Toward Incorporating National Universities in Korea (Pilnam Yi)....Pages 37-54 Paradigm Shift of Higher Education Governance in China (Xiaoguang Shi, Zhenjun Wu)....Pages 55-72 Taiwanese Struggle in University Governance Reforms: The Case of Incorporation (Sheng-Ju Chan, Chia-Yu Yang, Hsiu-Hsi Liu)....Pages 73-88 The Evolution of Corporatisation of Public Universities in Malaysia (Chang Da Wan, Sirat Morshidi)....Pages 89-105 Front Matter ....Pages 107-107 Changes in Governance and Finance at Japanese National Universities After Incorporation (Kazunori Shima)....Pages 109-123 Incorporation of a National University in Korea: The Changes at Seoul National University (Jung Cheol Shin)....Pages 125-141 The Neoliberalism Reform Under the Legacy of Planed Economy: The Peking University Case (Wenqin Shen, Wanhua Ma)....Pages 143-159 Institutional Change in the Iron Cage: A Case Study in Taiwan (Chuo-Chun Hsieh)....Pages 161-177 How a Century-Old Family-Like University Responds to the Neoliberal Agenda: The Case of National University of Tainan (Linda Li-chuan Chiang)....Pages 179-199 Corporatization of a Public University: From Collegial Culture to Bureaucratic and Corporate Culture (Molly N.
