Book description: Ashgate Publishing Co., 2000. Hardbound. New Book. Hardbound. Featuring contributions from the perspective of the government, academics, the Quality Assurance Agency, unions, students, and employers, this book addresses some of the challenges facing the UK education system. It identifies and examines the separate responsibilities and contributions of each stakeholder in terms of a compact. The 15 essays included here center on the idea of a compact, the political economy of higher education, issues of inclusivity, and the perspectives of consumers. The volume presents an overall view that we are moving away from an age of vision to one of instrumentality, and that higher education must respond to the uncertainty represented by this change.
