It incorporates voices positioned across university and policy-making hierarchies in its analysis of how Danish universities have been transformed. To do this, the book continually juxtaposes two meanings of ?enactment?: a top-down view based on laws and institutional power, and a bottom-up view of multiple actors shaping their institution in day-to-day life and in actively contested changes. By conceiving of the university as ?enacted? in both ways at once, the book explores how and why the university comes to be imagined and instantiated in new ways. The book traces the arguments for reform through a two-decade long, dynamic struggle between international forums and national industrial, political and academic interests over the definition of the university. It discusses which ideas finally became dominant and how this happened. It looks at government reforms from 2003 onwards, and, by means of notable ?telling moments?, explains how the governance and management of the university were transformed. It examines how academics found room to manoeuvre between contesting discourses that affect their identity and work. Finally, it shows how students engaged with new versions of historical debates about their participation in shaping their own education, their institution and society. 410 0$aHigher Education Dynamics,$x2215-1923 ;$v53 606 $aEducation, Higher 606 $aEducation and state 606 $aInternational education 606 $aComparative education 606 $aSchool management and organization 606 $aSchool management and organization 606 $aSocial sciences 606 $aHumanities 606 $aHigher Education 606 $aEducational Policy and Politics 606 $aInternational and Comparative Education 606 $aOrganization and Leadership 606 $aHumanities and Social Sciences 615 0$aEducation, Higher. 615 0$aEducation and state. 615 0$aInternational education. 615 0$aComparative education. 615 0$aSchool management and organization. 615 0$aSchool management and organization. 615 0$aSocial sciences. 615 0$aHumanities. 615 14$aHigher Education. 615 24$aEducational Policy and Politics. 615 24$aInternational and Comparative Education. 615 24$aOrganization and Leadership. 615 24$aHumanities and Social Sciences. 676 $a378.489 700 $aWright$b Susan$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0253485 702 $aCarney$b Stephen$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aKrejsler$b John Benedicto$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aNielsen$b Gritt Bykærholm$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aWilliams Ørberg$b Jakob$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910377817003321 996 $aEnacting the University: Danish University Reform in an Ethnographic Perspective$92517866 997 $aUNINA
