The rest of the world, including Africa, is left to play 'catch-up'. But that discourse should focus rather on the tensions, even contradictions, between 'excellence' and 'engagement' with which all universities must grapple. Here the African experience has much to offer the high-participation and generously resourced systems of the so-called 'developed' world. This book offers a critical review of that experience, and so makes a major contribution to our understanding of higher education. 410 0$aAfrican minds higher education dynamics series ;$vv. 1. 606 $aHigher education and state$zAfrica 606 $aEducation, Higher$xResearch$zAfrica 606 $aEducation, Higher$zAfrica 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aHigher education and state 615 0$aEducation, Higher$xResearch 615 0$aEducation, Higher 676 $a378.6 700 $aNico Cloete$4auth$01355864 702 $aBailey$b Tracy 702 $aMaassen$b Peter A.
