| Research Abstract |
This project set its purpose in investigating alternative forms of governance and finance of higher education institutions to respond to the changes in social and economic environment brought with globalization and the advent of knowledge society. Main findings include the following points.
First, the issue described above is felt not only in Japan, but in most of the OECD countries with verying sense of urgency. General trend is the shift away from the principle of direct government support and finance towards greater emphasis on the use of market principle. The general shift, however, involves various difficult issues. They appear when concrete changes are considered, particularly because it reveals the latent issues underlying the present system.
Second, the present system of governance and finance in Germany, France and Japan can be described as a "State Facility" model of higher education, as contrasted to a "Corporate" model typical in the U.S.
Third, he present shift implies changes in the State Facility model, which provokes various legal and practical issues. The nature of the issues discussed in some of the OECD countries have surprisingly similar aspects
