摘要

在本文當中，加州大學洛杉磯分校的Robert Rhoads教授檢視了全球化對於世界各地的大學的影響，特別將焦點關注於美國的脈絡當中，以及全球化作為形塑全球大學改革的角色。首先，將全球化定義為時間與空間的壓縮。其次，描述五項全球化的主要表現形式，分別是：全球資本主義、跨政府組織（如：WTO、IMF）（由上而下的全球化）、社會運動（由下而上的全球化）、文化全球化、人權全球化以及大規模暴力活動的全球化。第三，檢視了大學改革在受到上述的力量影響下，而將改革焦點關注於去管制化、私有化、標準化。最後，則提出美國「學術資本主義」模式的顯著限制。

In this article, Professor Robert Rhoads of UCLA examines the impact of globalization on universities around the world, with a particular focus on the context of the United States and its role in shaping global university reform. He begins by defining globalization as the shrinkage of time and space and then proceeds to describe the influence of five primary manifestations of globalization: global capitalism and intergovernmental organizations such as the WTO and IMF (”globalization from above”), social movements (”globalization from below”), cultural globalization, the globalization of human rights, and the globalization of violence of a massive scale. He then examines university reform in light of the preceding forces by focusing on movements to deregulate, privatize, and standardize universities. He closes by pointing to some of the significant limitations of the ”academic capitalist” model of the United States.
