Year: 2004
Type: article
Abstract: The higher education industry has emerged as an important element contributing to the economic vitality of the United States, which controls one third of the total world market of these services based on consumption abroad. This poses, at least, three political and cultural issues for serious consideration: globalization of higher education limits the transmittal of national and local culture; subordinates democratic citizens to the profitability of transnational companies and to their education support units; and transforms colleges and universities into corporations which undoubtedly leads to a loss of control and governance among scholars.
