- Abstract
Academic power and administrative power are the 2 basic types of authority in a university. While closely related to each other, they are at the same time opposed to each other. Whether a university is dominated by academic power or administrative power, they are all influenced by the political and market needs of the country. Game theory is an effective tool to analyze the relationship between academic power and administrative power. In this study we analyzed the game relationships between these 2 types of authority in universities with the help of a prisoner's dilemma game model, to achieve a new theoretical interpretation of the balance between academic power and administrative power.
