Elements of a Conceptual Framework for Latin America" Although the world may now be regarded as a single system, there is as yet no world society and conflict and fragmentation are more in evidence than integration and global governance. Wide disparities exist: the rich countries and the poor countries differ in fundamental aspects, since their circumstances vary enormously. Global competition for markets and technological innovation have interacted in such a way as to produce an anarchic world economy, inevitably providing the setting for major geopolitical conflicts. Instead of an increasing number of modern societies which to a greater or lesser extent replicate the model of the prosperous Western society prevailing in Europe and North America, as might have been hoped, there now exist many modern societies that are in fact failed attempts at modernity. By Hebe Vessuri, December 2003. "From Manpower Planning to the Knowledge Era: World Bank Policies on Higher Education in Africa" In the early 1960s the agenda seemed clear. For World Bank policy makers and many others, the primary task of higher education in Africa was to develop the specific skills that African countries needed. Human resource development—the contemporary terminology was “manpower planning”—was higher education’s principal mission. That high priority objective required significant public resources. By Samoff and Bidemi Carrol, July 2003. "Research and Research-Training Systems: Towards a Typology" At the Experts’ Meeting, held at UNESCO Headquarters in June 2001, the bases of the Forum on Higher Education, Research and Knowledge were laid down and proposals made for a future programme of work. From a substantive point of view, considerable progress was achieved, therefore. A number of regional case studies were presented with the purpose of identifying the status, structures, methods of steering, performance, output and general underlying dynamic within the various national R&D systems present within their respective regions. The results of this Meeting have been reported in the quarterly journal of the International Association of Universities, Higher Education Policy vol.14. No.3 September 2001.

"Challenges of the university in the knowledge society, five years after the World Conference on Higher Education" One of the characteristics of contemporary society is the central role of knowledge in the production processes, to the extent that the most frequent qualifier now used is that of the knowledge society. We are seeing the emergence of a new economic and productive paradigm in which the most important factor ceases to be the availability of capital, labour, raw materials or energy and becomes the intensive use of knowledge and information.

December 2003. "Market Coordination, Research Management and the Future of Higher Education in the Post-Industrial Era" Higher education governance and management cannot be adequately understood outside the context in which they occur. This includes not only intra-institutional dynamics (each somewhat unique), but also the relationship between higher education institutions and the broader social environment. Many of the pressures with which academic managers must cope are not created by themselves, but originate from a number of external social, economic and political demands, often reflected in government policy. In Australia, probably in no other area is the macro-economic reform at the national level – particularly in making the nation more responsive to a global knowledge-based economy – so closely aligned with the micro-management reform at the institutional level than with respect to the management of research. By Lynn Meek, October 2004. NATIONAL PLAN FOR HIGHER EDUCATION IN SOUTH AFRICA The victory over the apartheid state in 1994 set policy makers in all spheres of public life the mammoth task of overhauling the social, political, economic and cultural institutions of South Africa to bring them in line with the imperatives of a new democratic order. The vision for the transformation of the higher education system was articulated in Education White Paper 3: A Programme for the Transformation of Higher Education (1997). Central to this vision was the establishment of a single, national co-ordinated system, which would meet the learning needs of our citizens and the reconstruction and development needs of our society and economy. Ministry of Education, February 2001. A Strategic Planning Primer for Higher Education This article provides an overview of the strategic planning process.
