Abstract

This chapter takes in one sense a different tack to the previous chapters but deals with an extension of a key related aspect of the phenomena of self-superiority and inferiority described there. Its focus is on higher education choices as part of the new politics of student responsibilisation. From an article by Beach and Puaca in 2014 in the European Journal of Higher Education, it refers initially to the past two decades of higher education research in Europe that have brought shifts in the way institutions of higher education are defined and run, justify their existence and practices, and recruit and educate students. New demands are described as having been placed on university teachers, students and leadership, including an expanded role for student choices of and in higher education, and it is these choices, the ways in which they are accounted for, and the kinds of entitlement and empowerment they enable (or oppose) that are in focus.
