Australia's Universities--Through the Looking Glass.

Penington, David

Journal of Tertiary Educational Administration, v13 n2 p105-15 Oct 1991

Upheaval in Australia's university system in recent years can be attributed in large part to two influences dating to 1987: accession of John Dawkins to the Ministry of Employment, Education, and Training and the advent of federal regulation of industrial relations in education, which has undermined the collegial decision-making tradition.
