- Abstract
Changes of paradigm in terms of what universities are supposed to be and to offer in the larger context of a knowledge-based society has been undergoing in the past decades. Consequently, it also implied rethinking funding mechanisms and methods of allocation in light of ensuring a better support for larger cohorts of students and academic staff by rendering more transparency and accountability. Due to this complex context in which changes of roles, patterns of interactions, organizational and institutional actors became more diverse and even strongly intertwined than before, issues of governance of the higher education sector arouse across most of the European countries in the past three decades. In this article, particular emphasis is being given to funding reforms in CEE countries after the fall of communist regimes by revealing policy challenges and common trends, all this in the context of a poor literature on the subject at European level.
