A reestruturação da educação superior no debate internacional: a padronização das políticas de diversificação e diferenciação

Abstract

The present article analyses the higher education restructuring process through international documents that guide the models and reforms currently being developed. The investigation is focused on the crisis diagnoses, on the contemporary challenges, on the missions and on the proposed alternative solutions, pointing out that there is a kind of standardization in higher education policies in a society of knowledge and in a competitive and globalized world permanently changing. This process underlies the reforms that are being implemented in different Latin American countries.
