Olivas, Michael A. – Review of Higher Education, 2005
Space counts in college. "Brown" and the many higher education cases leading to that important legal decision were about place: where Negro schoolchildren would be allowed to attend school or whether Black students could attend white law schools.

Ravenhall, Mark – Adults Learning, 2005
Back in November, voters in the North East of England overwhelmingly rejected the move towards an elected regional assembly. The scale of the defeat (three to one) of a Government-backed scheme was a rude awakening for the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister and the range of regional agencies created since 1997. After all, it was felt that the…

Jacob, Brian Aaron; Ludwig, Jens – Brookings Papers on Education Policy, 2005
Will recent federal policy changes succeed in improving the quality of education policy research? One explanation for the limited supply to date of high-quality evaluation evidence in education is limited demand, owing perhaps, in part, to market failure for both education outcomes and education research. In the market for education outcomes, the…

Robertson, Jane; Bond, Carol – Higher Education: The International Journal of Higher Education and Educational Planning, 2005
The relation between teaching and research is a defining feature of a modern university and of academic identity.

Yet the gap between claims and practice in higher education appears to be widening as government and institutional policies increasingly…

Fredriksson, Ulf – European Educational Research Journal, 2004
This article starts by putting the General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS) into a general context of privatisation. It is noted that the privatisation process is in many cases complex and not only about full-scale privatisation of schools. The growing trade in education must be seen in this context. GATS is not an agreement which deals with…
