The Construction and Challenges of Australia's Post-Binary System of Higher Education.

Mahonly, David

Oxford Review of Education, v19 n4 p465-83 1993

Discusses the transition to a postbinary higher education system in Australia and the United Kingdom. Contends that, in Australia, the new direction was motivated by official concerns that universities be made more accessible to government priorities. Maintains that the Australian approach ignored a canon for diversity in higher education. (CFR)
