In East Asia, higher education has relied heavily on private and marketized forces
in its rapid development process. At the same time, state governments have introduced
strong initiatives especially in upgrading the global positioning of their flagship
universities through their pursuit of international competitiveness. Currently, these
well-known characteristics of East Asian higher education are challenged by the necessity
to formulate international dimensions for regional and global well-being, without
a clear consensus as to a regional future vision. The changing roles of East Asian
higher education in a new global environment have implications for academics and policy-makers
who not only wish but also need to understand the most recent developments and future
prospects of higher education from an East Asian point of view. 0In this book, authors
from a wide variety of cultural and academic backgrounds examine the changing context
of East Asian higher education in the global, regional, and national dimensions The
analysis and case study material in this volume are strengthened by the wealth of
contributors' diverse national and professional backgrounds. Most have practical experience
in the formulation of higher education policy in two or more countries. The range
of disciplinary perspectives that contributors brought to the book - including sociology,
political science, anthropology, economics, philosophy and history - strengthen the
multi-disciplinary approach, credibility, and uniqueness of the work. Each chapter
considers the impact of the emergence of international dimensions in East Asian Higher
Education through detailed consideration of trends and debates over higher education
reforms at the regional, sub-regional, inter-regional and national levels
