Abstract:
Different methodological approaches to determining the accessibility of higher education services have been analyzed, and their classification into four groups has been proposed by the criteria: ensuring equal opportunities for people to receive higher education, compilation (accounting for a variety of factors affecting accessibility), structural (for accessibility elements of the higher education system, system) and probabilistic (accessibility as a chance to get a higher education or go on training). It is shown that the first three approaches consider the availability of higher education s

Abstract:
Internationalisation is known to contribute to higher education development, particularly through the integration of international, inter-cultural or global dimensions into the purpose, functions, or delivery of higher education institutions (Knight 2004). Within this inter-connected world, higher education institutions are pressured to produce quality human resources with global citizenship characteristics. Students have benefited greatly from this process as they can have access to international/regional standards of education services and the opportunity to be exposed to other countries, pe

Abstract:
Decentralization of provision of public services has been an important item in the agenda of developing countries. While some scholars and practitioners argue that decentralization is associated with improvements in provision due to higher accountability, others note its potential pitfalls. In particular, decentralization to local communities characterized by poverty, low levels of education, and inequality may lead to low accountability and higher susceptibility to political capture. This paper explores these dynamics empirically, taking advantage of the fact that in Brazilian municipalities
