Higher Education as Self-Formation

Higher Education as Self-Formation
Prof Simon Marginson draws on and integrates a range of social science disciplines in his work, primarily political economy and political philosophy, historical sociology and social theory. His work focuses on globalisation and higher education, international and comparative higher education, and higher education and social inequality. He is currently researching the implications of the worldwide trend to high participation systems of higher education.

Respondent: Professor Stephen Ball's main areas of academic interest are in sociologically informed education policy analysis, especially concerning, social inequalities, the role of the state and the market in education. Most recently his work has addressed changing modes of governance in education,, as well as offering a comprehensive application of the work of Michael Foucault to education [in Foucault as Education, 2017].
