Territorial differences in the Italian social model
No full textColombo S. and Regini M. Territorial differences in the Italian 'social model', Regional Studies. As elsewhere in Europe in the post-Second World War period the Italian political élites shared the belief that market economies should not be left entirely to the market, but rather follow some sort of 'social model'. However, while Italy did join Continental European countries in developing such an institutional arrangement, this was differently shaped in the different territorial areas of the country. This paper briefly sketches what is commonly regarded as the typical configuration of this social model and then describes how each of its features works differently in the different territorial contexts, finding a deep dividing line between the Centre-North and the South
Conclusioni : dove vanno le università europee e perché
No full textIn the last 30 years we can detect three major drivers of change in European higher education. The first one is the transition to a ‘mass university’, that is the demand for ‘generalized access’ to higher education. The second is the advent of a ‘knowledge economy’, which implies a growing demand for the socio-economic use of such higher education ‘products’ as high professional skills and research. The third has been the unfolding of the ‘Bologna process’, and more generally of policies of harmonization of the European higher education systems to foster mobility, transparency and comparability. These three drivers of change are often seen to be a consequence of demands by both external and internal actors, which forced all higher education systems to increase their openness to the outside environment and the market, though to varying degrees and in variable ways. As a result, the three poles of the traditional HE governance (the state, the academic communities and the university administrations) became more permeable to a market logic. A greater openness to the market has had a major impact on universities’ missions, priorities, activities and internal balance of power. The three drivers above have reinforced each other in producing this outcome. Within this framework, the chapter discusses two conclusions drawn from the comparative research carried on. First, the opening up of European universities to the market has been led more by governments than by external actors’ demand. Second, the penetration of market relations in universities has been limited and partial. What we observe more often are cooperative relations, or an autonomous attempt by internal actors to anticipate external demand
