This book deepens our understanding of how higher education governance has recently changed in
the rapidly developing higher education systems of East Asia. Focusing on China Japan Korea
Malaysia and Taiwan it explains the implications of how state-centered political systems
interpret political and economic environments such as neoliberalism as well as how each system
is coping with global pressures. The book makes a valuable contribution to organization studies
in higher education by investigating and detailing how individual higher education institutions
are responding to their new environments.
