Termes, Andreu; Edwards, D. Brent, Jr.; Verger, Antoni – Educational Policy, 2020
Educational public-private partnerships (EPPP) have been widely implemented in the Philippines, primarily through the Education Service Contracting (ESC) voucher.

Ross, E. Wayne – Canadian Journal of Action Research, 2020
What we understand about the world is determined by what the world is, who we are, and how we conduct our inquiries. Action research privileges the question "why are things as they are?" This article explores how neoliberalism, with its key principle that competition is the defining characteristic of human relations, reshapes our work as…

Wanjohi, Lucy – Journal of Continuing Higher Education, 2020
Much development has happened in the education sector in African countries. In Kenya, there has been a proliferation of institutions of higher learning. Severe cuts in government funding for public higher education have resulted in the privatization of higher education and the need for adjunct faculty as a way to cut costs. Research suggests that…

Stein, Sharon – Critical Studies in Education, 2020
This conceptual paper examines the colonial conditions of possibility for a formative moment of US public higher education, the Morrill Act of 1862, and considers how these conditions continue to shape the present. The federal government's accumulation of Indigenous lands in the nineteenth century helped provide the material base for land-grant…

Wheelahan, Leesa; Moodie, Gavin – Higher Education: The International Journal of Higher Education Research, 2022
This paper argues that micro-credentials are gig credentials for the gig economy. Micro-credentials are short competency-based industry-aligned units of learning, while the gig economy comprises contingent work by individual 'suppliers'. Both can be facilitated by (often the same) digital platforms, and both are underpinned by social relations of…

Keddie, Amanda; MacDonald, Katrina; Blackmore, Jill; Wilkinson, Jane; Gobby, Brad; Niesche, Richard; Eacott, Scott; Mahoney, Caroline – International Journal of Leadership in Education, 2022
School autonomy policies have circulated through various modes of educational governance internationally, endorsing the view that more autonomy will improve schools and their systems. When subject to the discourses and practices of marketization, however, school 'autonomy' has been mobilized in ways that generate injustice. These injustices are…

Wekullo, Caroline Sabina – Journal of Higher Education Policy and Management, 2017
Outsourcing or privatising services in higher education is a common practice, but what do we really know about it? Is outsourcing effective?

Scholars, institutional administrators and policymakers need to understand the…

Ideland, Malin; Jobér, Anna; Axelsson, Thom – European Educational Research Journal, 2021
This article explores how a growing apparatus of edupreneurial actors offers solutions for the current 'school crisis' and how these commercial actors become taken for granted in the public school system. The Swedish case is interesting, as it involves a once-strong welfare state that is now associated with both the neoliberal discourse of…
