The Politics of Higher Education in Minority Nations: Insights from Quebec


Add your own review!

Overview

The Politics of Higher Education in Minority Nations critically examines the connection between higher education policy and nationalism in Quebec, tracing its trajectory from the Quiet Revolution of the 1960s to 2022. Using the Quiet Revolution as a starting point, the book highlights specific policy arenas and events where nationalism and higher education have intersected over time, illustrating how this policy sphere has come to symbolize Quebec's distinctiveness and serve as a tool for cultivating its national identity. The book explores how nationalism continues to shape and influence higher education policy decisions, emphasizing its role as a key factor in the articulation, negotiation, and implementation of these policies. By providing new insights into these connections through the lens of minority nationalism and policy processes below the level of national governments, The Politics of Higher Education in Minority Nations enhances our understanding of minority nations and their unique modes of mobilization in today's globalized world.
