Higher Education Policy in Australia: Corporate or Coercive Federalism?
Smart, Don
Journal of Education Policy, v6 n1 p97-100 1991

Because the Commonwealth assumed full financial responsibility for higher education, it has increasingly employed coercive federalism or simply ignored the states. (12 references) (MLH)
