Creating Knowledge, Strengthening Nations seeks to improve understanding by deepening the analysis of how universities contribute to economic growth and entrepreneurialism while also contributing to strategic societal goals of equity and redistributive justice. Editors Glen A. Jones, Patricia L. McCarney, and Michael L. Skolnik have brought together a diverse group of contributors to describe how internal and external forces arising from globalization are exerting pressure to change the role of higher education in society and how universities are dealing with these pressures. The essays pay particular attention to tensions associated with attempts to balance the economic with the non-economic objectives of higher education, and between those who celebrate the 'entrepreneurial university' versus those who lament the new alignment between the university and the business community as undermining the civic responsibility of the university and its freedom of speech and critical inquiry. Creating Knowledge, Strengthening Nations is a crucial addition to the debate on the future of higher education. 606 $aEducation, Higher$xAims and objectives 606 $aEducation, Higher$xPhilosophy 608 $aConference papers and proceedings. 608 $aElectronic books. 610 1 $aKnowledge 610 1 $aStrengthening nations 610 1 $aHigher education 615 0$aEducation, Higher$xAims and objectives. 615 0$aEducation, Higher$xPhilosophy. 676 $a378.01 702 $aJones$b Glen Alan$f1961- 702 $aMcCarney$b Patricia L. 702 $aSkolnik$b Michael L. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910780695703321 996 $aCreating knowledge, strengthening Nations$93731300 997 $aUNINA
