Convergent or divergent Europeanization? An analysis of higher education governance reforms in France and Italy
By: Michael Dobbins.

ArticlePublisher: 2017Description: p.177-199.Subject(s): European Union | Higher education | Educational reform
In:
International Review of Administrative SciencesSummary: This article comparatively examines the higher education reform pathways of France and Italy. Using a scheme of empirical indicators, I focus on the divergent and convergent developments in these two countries, which played a pioneering role in the Europeanization of higher education. While France has consistently moved closer to a market-oriented model, legacies of academic self-rule were initially strengthened in Italy, before recent reforms aimed to crack down on academic power abuses. To explain these policy pathways, I pursue a dual theoretical argument by linking institutional isomorphism with historical institutionalism. - Reproduced.
