Canadian Public Policy, 2001, vol. 27, issue 3, 279-295

Abstract: This paper analyzes current trends in public policy in higher education in the United States, Canada, and some countries of the European Union. These policies reflect the transformation of public management; some of them respond to the current demands of globalization and the informational age. This analysis shows the expanding role of the state in the governance of higher education; concern for the accessibility and diversification of the services offered; a progressive financial disengagement of the state; the setting up of performance indicators; the internationalization of institutions and informational restructuring. These trends can be found, in varying degrees, in higher education systems on both sides of the Atlantic.
