Abstract
Subject headings
Close
- Considering current discourses on educational research at universities, research councils and government the preconditions for educational research are in transition. Catchwords like “World class,” “excellence,” “strategic,” “visionary,” “multi-disciplinary,” and “internationally competitive” are repeatedly used among financiers and higher education institutions (HEI) and reflect what is at stake and what has come into focus. This is combined with an increasing emphasis on competition for research funds, publication impact, international networking and research cooperation in research projects. In sum, what is communicated to the research community with such an emphasis today is competition, positioning in research hierarchies and demands for strategic action in order to obtain funds and to produce what is regarded as high-quality research of social and political accountability.
