[{"$nulls":4},"governance in higher education. This book fills the void in research and academic knowledge about the emerging university configurations in Africa. It analyzes the paradox surrounding the performance of multi-campus university systems, avenues of broadening university access but whose structural success may be qualitatively contested. This book offers a refreshing examination of the African multi-campus university system from both an African and global perspective. It makes use of empirical data from Kenya collected during extensive fieldwork along with substantive library and documentary resources on the rest of the continents to fortify arguments and demonstrate important conclusions. This allows for a comparative analysis of policies and strategies used in the establishment of campuses, both within and beyond national boundaries in the continent, and will be a welcome contribution to the existing repertoire on African universities.\"--"]
