It includes a substantial analysis of key policy issues, as well as detailed case studies of Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Philippines, and Vietnam"--Provided by publisher."Throughout SouthEast Asia, the balance between public and private higher education is changing. Caught between conflicting imperatives, of spiralling demand, and limited resources, the balance between public and private higher education systems in South East, South, and East Asia has shifted markedly. Twenty years ago, no private universities existed in Malaysia, or Viet Nam - now private higher education is challenging for a major role. But this is not the whole story. The same cost pressures affect public HEIs. Governments press for more enrolments, but state support is slipping, at least in per-student terms. The effects push public HEIs to diversify income sources, by various means: offering high demand courses for high fees, or developing parallel courses, taught at nights or weekends, sometimes in shopping malls, for high fees. Is there a connection between the two trends? What is argued is that we are witnessing not merely a changing balance between public and private sectors, but a blurring of borders between them, with public HEIs now often behaving more like private, for-profit institutions. The book charts and illustrates these trends, posing questions about their meaning, including issues of transparency, equity, and what the reforms might mean for traditional conceptions of public good in higher education"--Provided by publisher.Routledge research on public and social policy in Asia ;6.Private universities and collegesSoutheast AsiaEducation, HigherSoutheast AsiaEducation and stateSoutheast AsiaPrivate universities and collegesEducation, HigherEducation and state378.59EDU000000EDU015000bisacshWelch Anthony R885707MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910955897503321Higher education in Southeast Asia4496312UNINA03221nam 2200661 a 450 991096009690332120260122114716.01-283-21147-597866132114770-8122-0133-710.9783/9780812201338(CKB)2550000000051273(EBL)3441468(SSID)ssj0000544449(PQKBManifestationID)11335565(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000544449(PQKBWorkID)10535414(PQKB)11465379(MiAaPQ)EBC3441468(OCoLC)759158196(MdBmJHUP)muse3164(DE-B1597)448987(OCoLC)979744233(DE-B1597)9780812201338(Au-PeEL)EBL3441468(CaPaEBR)ebr10491925(CaONFJC)MIL321147(OCoLC)932312361(EXLCZ)99255000000005127319970108d1997 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrOn the government of rulers /De Regimine PrincipumPtolemy of Lucca ; with portions attributed to Thomas Aquinas ; translated by James M.

He was the first to attack kingship as despotism and to draw parallels between ancient Greek models of mixed constitution and the Roman Republic, biblical rule, the Church, and medieval government.In addition to his translation of this important and radical medieval political treatise, written around 1300, James M. Blythe includes a sixty-page introduction to the work and provides over 1200 footnotes that trace Ptolemy's sources, explain his references, and comment on the text, the translation, the context, and the significance.Middle Ages series.Political scienceEarly works to 1800Political science320.1/01Bartholomewof Lucca,approximately 1236-1327.330585Blythe James M.1948-614758ThomasAquinas, Saint,1225?-1274.290144MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910960096903321On the government of rulers4529077UNINA
