Hong Kong Higher Education: The Way Forward

Education reform is exacerbated by the notion that education not only transmits specific values, but also articulates itself around different sets of internal and external key stakeholders' values which constantly interact and affect the function and direction of higher education. Due to inevitable moral and identity conflicts about the nature of higher education, standardized managerial practices are introduced to enable smooth academic development delivery. Considering the diverse cultural aspects and idiosyncrasies of different higher education institutes, it is questionable whether any standardized strategy can produce uniform results for all the stakeholders involved. This book is of interest to all those concerned in higher education today. It makes especially useful reading for academics in understanding the trend of Hong Kong higher education.
