"Global University Rankings explores the novel topic of global university rankings
and their effects on higher education in Europe. The contributions in this volume
outline different discourses on global university rankings and explore the related
changes concerning European higher education policies, disciplinary traditions and
higher education institutions. The first global university rankings were published
less than a decade ago, but these policy instruments have become highly influential
in shaping the approaches and institutional realities of higher education. The rankings
have portrayed European academic institutions in a varying light. There is intense
reflexivity over the figures, leading to ideational changes and institutional adaptation
that take surprisingly similar forms in different European countries. The contributions
in this book critically assess global university rankings as a policy discourse that
would seem to be instrumental to higher education reform throughout Europe"
