Beschreibung
This book considers Higher Education institutional change as a layered process, where change is interconnected across institutional arrangements. A three-layered consideration of the Higher Education institutional change frame is then advanced. The book further conceptualizes Higher Education within the dual identification of its organisational and institutional frames, thereby highlighting the agency and structural conundrum that ought to be constantly negotiated in its change process. In addition, given the complexities of higher education institutionalism, this book also considers historical trajectories as points of departure for further institutionalization, with the possibilities of different paths taken by different Higher Education entities.
