This is an important and timely collection of essays, since it comes shortly after the publication of India's National Education Policy, which has opened new possibilities of reform of its system of higher education. For Indian higher education institutions to embrace these possibilities, they need evidence and analysis, which this book provides with great clarity and considerable sophistication.

India's National Education Policy proposals have brought higher education to the top of the policy agenda. This book provides an outstanding analysis of many of the key themes in the NEP. Its data-driven analyses are highly relevant.
Philip G. Altbach, Research Professor and Founding Director of the Center for International Higher Education, Boston College, USA
This book is an important contribution to the study of HE, bringing the scholarship of this sector in India up to date. By engaging critically with issues brought about by neoliberalism, this volume charts a path forward for the development of Indian HE. Indian policymakers would benefit from reading it.

The Bloomsbury Higher Education Research series provides the evidence-based academic output of the world’s leading research centre on higher education, the ESRC/RE Centre for Global Higher Education (CGHE) in the UK. The core focus of CGHE’s work and of The Bloomsbury Higher Education Research series is higher education, especially the future of higher education in the changing global landscape. The emergence of CGHE reflects the remarkable growth in the role and importance of universities and other higher education institutions, and research and science, across the world. Corresponding to CGHE’s projects, monographs in the series will consist of social science research on global, international, national and local aspects of higher education, drawing on methodologies in education, learning theory, sociology, economics, political science and policy studies. Monographs will be prepared so as to maximise worldwide readership and selected on the basis of their relevance to one or more of higher education policy, management, practice and theory. Topics will range from teaching and learning and technologies, to research and research impact in industry, national system design, the public good role of universities, social stratification and equity, institutional governance and management, and the cross-border mobility of people, institutions, programmes, ideas and knowledge. The Bloomsbury Higher Education Research series is at the cutting edge of world research on higher education.
