Worldviews and Values in Higher Education
Emerald Publishing Limited (Verlag)

Participation in education is essential in fostering the full agency of people within society. Higher education is subject to a variety of rights for students, and often these rights are protected by law or by university policy. This edited collection explores how higher education institutions have responded to this human-rights-based approach to higher education.
Introducing the concept of educational rights and their role in the emerging university of the twenty-first century, Worldviews and Values in Higher Education delves into how educational stakeholders must understand the nature of rights and the role they play in shaping, often implicitly, an institution’s ethos, customs, norms, and traditions, and how educational rights should be reflected in the institution’s mission, vision, and values statements.
The authors explore how historical, politico-legal, economic, sociocultural, colonial and environmental context impacts university rights and responsibilities. They also explore how broad forces, such as globalization and internationalization, have accelerated cross-border education and impacted the presumptive universality of rights and responsibilities. The chapters demonstrate, through different countries’ perspectives, how educational rights are evolving across the academic landscape. This book is for any educator interested in higher education institutions' educational development.
