University entrepreneurship in a developing country: The case of the P. Universidad Católica de Chile, 1985–2000     

Andrés?BernasconiEmail author 《Higher Education》2005,50(2):247-274

Privatization in higher education is usually understood either as the surge of private institutions or as universities’ growing reliance on private sources of funding or otherwise operating more like firms. Joining the growing literature on university entrepreneurship, this is a case study on the less examined problem of entrepreneurial universities in developing countries. In a period of roughly 15 years, the Pontificia Universidad Católica of Chile, founded in 1888, turned itself from a mostly teaching institution to a research-oriented university, responsible for one-fourth of the Chile’s mainstream scientific output and 40% of all Ph.D.s awarded nationally. Yet, public funding represents today only 17% of its revenues, down from almost 90% in 1972. How such academic development could have occurred as the State withdrew and the market took hold of Chilean higher education after the reforms introduced by the military rule of Augusto Pinochet (1973–1990) is the theme of this work. Universidad Católica’s policies and strategies are described, and the factors contributing to its success, together with their limitations, identified. The case suggests that orientation to the market can be more a means for survival and growth under the pressure of privatization, than a result of a ‘Triple Helix’ strategy of universities, government and industry to generate innovation out of academic knowledge. Secondly, while in the industrialized world, higher education entrepreneurship is associated with knowledge production for economic development (‘Mode 2’), entrepreneurial universities in the context of developing countries may just be finding their way to the academic, disciplinary mode of research.  相似文献   

Exposure to crime and academic achievement: A case study for Costa Rica using PISA data     

《Studies in Educational Evaluation》2020

We analyse the effect of violent crime on students' results in Costa Rica. The combination of PISA data and highly disaggregated information on crime at the district level is a main contribution of this article. Our methodological approach provides also some novelties in the field, the most important being the use of a simultaneous equations model solved with instrumental variables. This allows us to obtain unbiased and efficient estimators in the presence of simultaneity between education and crime. We conclude that exposure to crime, measured by the homicide rate, has a negative and significant impact on academic achievement. This effect is particularly important in the case of students attending schools situated in districts with a lower social development.  相似文献

Pedagogising poverty alleviation: a discourse analysis of educational and social policies in Argentina and Chile     

Xavier Rambla  Antoni Veger 《British Journal of Sociology of Education》2009,30(4):463-477

For the past decades international organisations and governments have promoted and implemented analogous education policies on the grounds that education is the key factor to foster development and fight poverty. This article sets the context of these educational programmes and analyses their discourse on poverty in Argentina and Chile. Then, it shows how they institutionalise strict surveillance, institutional denigration of the poor and professional scepticism. In general, the conclusions underpin one hypothesis that leads the analysis: eventually, these targeted education policies ‘pedagogise’ poverty alleviation in that they aim to ‘instil flexible identities’ into the poor rather than open channels for social inclusion.  相似文献   

健身气功·气舞的名称、功理及美学问题研究     

王英璟  项汉平  任克 《武汉体育学院学报》2018,52(9):66-71

健身气功是我国民族传统体育项目的重要组成部分,健身气功·气舞是其在追求艺术美感方向上的最新尝试。该文主要运用文献资料法、专家访谈法,以对健身气功·气舞裁判规则、实践情况以及后续影响的分析为基础,以健身气功功法原理为根本,依次从健身气功·气舞的名称、功理和审美观三个层面对存在的问题进行剖析。研究显示：健身气功·气舞在名称序列上的不对应性和旨意的不确定性会影响受众的理解;对健身气功功理诸如外在神态、练养结合等的疏忽会使"功"朝着"舞"的方向发展;健身气功·气舞中附加元素过多无助于审美移情的产生和固有境界的营造,目前其发展方式也与绿色简约审美观有所背离。进而,针对这些问题提出了相应的建议。  相似文献

郁南“禾楼舞”的文化解读     

郑朝沙  刘亚 《吉林体育学院学报》2012,(6):140-142

采用文献资料、实地考察、现场访谈等研究方法对郁南"禾楼舞"的文化生态环境、变迁历程、体育文化功能及审美价值等方面开展研究。研究结果表明,郁南"禾楼舞"是古时百越乌浒人庆祝丰收,祈求风雨的一种祭祀类原始舞蹈,是远古巫文化与傩文化相结合的产物,它经过了古越乌浒人,三国至唐代的僚人,以及之后的瑶族人和汉人的传承,经历了古越文化、瑶族文化、汉文化的影响,受到佛道等思想的渗透,是南江地区历史发展和社会进步的历史缩影。郁南"禾楼舞"具有极高的体育健身价值、体育旅游价值、观赏价值、社会文化价值,同时舞蹈本身包涵着一种集体主义和英雄崇拜主义的精神,表现出一种狂热豪放的激情浪漫主义情怀。  相似文献
