The Alternative - Non-State Higher Education in Europe

By Klaus Hekking

Higher education is mainly seen as a task of the state in Europe. Since the turn of the century, however, non-state higher education has seen a strong development in most countries of the European Union. For many students, it has become a real alternative.This development is indicative of: o civil society's commitment to the common good, o the pursuit of diversity in higher education, o the desire for more autonomy in higher education, o competition as an effective driver of innovation, quality and efficiency in higher education. Klaus Hekking gives an overview of the development of non-state higher education in Europe and the political, legal and economic conditions that apply to it.
