Yudkevich, Maria M.
Russian Education & Society, v57 n6 p519-530 2015
The author reflects upon the issue of the global education market, where leading universities turn into a matter of national prestige. But what could the specifics of Russian academic profession be, and are we ready to develop world-class universities? By analyzing data from surveys, conducted in Russian universities with the methodology of the international project Changing Academic Profession (CAP), the author comes to a conclusion that national universities require a significant transformation in order to successfully enter the global academic field.
