Description

Makgoba discusses the shift from the classical British model of university autonomy to a "co-operative governance model" suited for a developing South Africa. He argues that universities must be developmental instruments for the nation and suggests that a "high-trust syndrome" between the state and the university is necessary to protect academic freedom in the new millennium.
