The book analyses the evolution of indicator-based global knowledge governance, where various national attributes have been evaluated under international comparative assessment. Reflecting this general trend, the Shanghai ranking, first published in 2003, has pressured governments and universities all over the world to improve their performance in global competition. More recently, as global rankings have met criticism for their methodology and scope, measurements of various sizes and shapes have proliferated: some celebrating novel methodological solutions, others breaking new conceptual grounds. This book takes a fresh look at developments in the field of knowledge governance by showing how emerging indicators, innovation indexes and subnational comparisons are woven into the existing fabric of measurements that govern our ideas of higher education, innovation and competitiveness. This book argues that while rankings are becoming more numerous and fragmented, the new knowledge products, nevertheless, tend to reproduce ideas and practices existing in the field of global measurement. 001358858 650_0 $$aEducation. 001358858 650_0 $$aSchool management and organization. 001358858 650_0 $$aEducation and state. 001358858 650_0 $$aducation and state. 001358858 650_0 $$aEducational sociology. 001358858 650_0 $$aAssessment. 001358858 650_0 $$aEducation, Higher. 001358858 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001358858 7001_ $$aPiironen, Ossi,$$eauthor. 001358858 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9783319689401 001358858 830_0 $$aPalgrave studies in global higher education. 001358858 852__ $$bebk 001358858 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-68941-8$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001358858 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1358858$$pGLOBAL_SET 001358858 980__ $$aBIB 001358858 980__ $$aEBOOK 001358858 982__ $$aEbook 001358858 983__ $$aOnline 001358858 994__ $$a92$$bISE
