About this title

Synopsis

Les principaux chapitres du pr�sent ouvrage correspondent � neuf �tudes de cas qui illustrent ce qu’il faut faire pour cr�er et maintenir des universit�s de recherche. Les r�dacteurs ont choisi sp�cifiquement ces �tudes de cas en fonction de plusieurs crit�res. Nous avons tout d’abord veill� � un bon �quilibre r�gional en incluant des exemples d’au moins cinq r�gions sur quatre continents : Am�rique latine (Chili et Mexique), Asie du Sud (Inde), Asie de l’Est et du Sud-Est (Chine ; RAS de Hong Kong, Chine ; R�publique de Cor�e ; Malaisie ; Singapour), Europe de l’Est (F�d�ration de Russie) et Afrique (Nig�ria). Deuxi�mement, nous avons inclus des �tablissements aussi bien publics que priv�s. Troisi�mement nous avons voulu que les �tudes de cas repr�sentent diverses strat�gies consistant notamment � moderniser des universit�s existantes ou � en cr�er d’enti�rement nouvelles au cours des deux derni�res d�cennies. Quatri�mement, nous avons choisi des �tablissements aux configurations acad�miques vari�es, certaines �tant ax�es essentiellement sur la science et la technologie, d’autres �tant des universit�s polyvalentes, et l’une d’elles mettant l’accent sur les sciences sociales. Enfin, nous avons s�lectionn� trois �tudes de cas sp�cialis�es : le chapitre 8 sur le Chili compare les deux principales universit�s du pays, l’une publique et l’autre priv�e ; le chapitre 5 sur l’Universit� de Malaisie et l’Universit� nationale de Singapour propose une comparaison historique entre deux �tablissements cr��s initialement comme deux campus distincts de la m�me universit� et qui ont connu une exp�rience consid�rablement diff�rente depuis lors, et le chapitre 7 sur le Nig�ria, dans lequel l’Universit� d’Ibadan constitue un exemple d’universit� phare qui s’est gravement d�t�rior�e mais est maintenant engag�e � nouveau sur la voie de l’excellence.
