      abstract = {This open access book is a result of the first ever study  of the transformations of the higher education  institutional landscape in fifteen former USSR countries  after the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991. It  explores how the single Soviet model that developed across  the vast and diverse territory of the Soviet Union over  several decades has evolved into fifteen unique national  systems, systems that have responded to national and global  developments while still bearing some traces of the past.  The book is distinctive as it presents a comprehensive  analysis of the reforms and transformations in the region  in the last 25 years; and it focuses on institutional  landscape through the evolution of the institutional types  established and developed in Pre-Soviet, Soviet and  Post-Soviet time. It also embraces all fifteen countries of  the former USSR, and provides a comparative analysis of  transformations of institutional landscape across  Post-Soviet systems. It will be highly relevant for  students and researchers in the fields of higher education  and and sociology, particularly those with an interest in  historical and comparative studies.},
