The American model, shaped by globalisation, is most closely aligned with market imperatives, emphasising choice-based education and increasing privatisation of higher education. Despite its global appeal, the model faces mounting challenges in the West, including growing scepticism among the youth about the value of university education. This paper asks why the American model is in crisis and offers a cautionary perspective to Indian universities adopting it.-Reproduced https://www.epw.in/journal/2026/12/special-articles/evolution-modern-higher-educational-institutes.html  aEconomic & Political Weekly  cAR 00102ddc40709408361aIIPAbIIPAd2026-04-29h61(12), Mar 21, 2026: p.45-52pAR138702r2026-04-29yAR
