The higher education system in Norway generally produces graduates with good skills and labour market outcomes. This success can be largely attributed to Norway’s robust and inclusive labour market and recent higher education reforms to improve quality.

This book focuses on how the Northern futures are transformed through regional cooperation in the Barents eduscape: a study of the social, cultural and political aspects of higher education and the exchanges of learning and people in the Euro-Arctic Barents region, especially between Norway and Russia. Cultural exchange through higher education involving actors such as students and institutions is an integral part both of the Bologna process and of the policies currently changing higher education. It is also a process of social and cultural change of which we have limited knowledge. Cultural exchange is learned, implemented and performed by the actors who are involved, from the highest political level to the grassroots and the students themselves. Available knowledge of these macro- and micro-processes of cultural exchange is largely fragmented and distinctly framed in national and/or disciplinary (i.e. pedagogical) contexts. In order to understand the transformative potentials of higher education and cultural exchange, this book focuses on the social, cultural and political aspects of the transformations of the futures in the North. This book shows that educational cooperation between Norway and Russia is possible, but also that the existing practices are extremely vulnerable to changes seen through micro theoretical perspectives. By developing new theories which bind major theories, international political decisions, methodological procedures and contextual descriptions together, this book is a first step in the direction of institutionalizing educational cooperation between the various and different academic societies, cultures and political systems.

This multidisciplinary book brings together scholars from Norway and the UK to discuss the notion of trust within the structures and forms of higher education located in two distinctive localities. The meaning of trust is multi-variant and nuanced, but is omnipresent in the literature on higher education ranging from student engagement to policy exhortations. A key feature of this book is the effort to integrate the term ‘trust’ conceptually, functionally and phenomenological more generally as well as within the context of higher education. Practice from within Norway and the UK is used to illustrate and expose relevant similarities and varieties in trust and the (possible) lack of it within the sector. The book thus faces the complexity of trust and its distinctive manifestation through a number of analytical lenses and realities.

Change in higher education policy reflects and transforms the relationship between the state, the higher education institution and the individual. Drawn from the perspectives of political science and sociology, this volume describes and analyses the interplay of factors at all three levels, using Norway as a case study. The last thirty years have been a period of rapid growth and change in the Norwegian higher education system. This book details the nature of the intensive change and how it has redefined the location and mission of higher education. At the level of the institution itself it analyses processes of growth, diversification and integration and how these affect individual learning; it looks at recent organisational trends towards managerialism, theoretification and hierarchisation. The authors examine the influence and identity of the academic profession and knowledge formation for the future `knowledge society'.

CAN NORWAY LEARN FROM CHINA? The book's purpose is to reach parents and grandparents worldwide, to inspire them to be conscious about the quality of their loved-ones' schooling. Parents and grandparents are more important than public authorities, teachers and researchers, to achieve successful school development. Quality education is the primary life insurance in a changing global world. From my experiences in Norway, East Asia, Finland and England, I present some ideas about how parents and grandparents can enhance school quality. China soon has the world's largest economy. Can a substantial explanation be the respect for knowledge and the population's strong willingness to learn? When China joined OECD's Pisa surveys (2009), Shanghai's 15-year-olds were top in the world. The same was the case in Pisa 2013. Chinese students abroad, are those that complete the fastest. Is effort in school work China's strongest soft power? Norway is a small, sparsely populated, super wealthy Scandinavian country. Historically, it had an excellent education system. That changed when the country switched to a US American curriculum model after World War II. Today the situation is worrying. Norway has rather low school quality objectively, and worse, relatively, when compared to amount of money used per student. Everybody has access to higher education, free of charge. Dropouts from higher education is increasing. In 2015, four out of ten university students dropped out. The nation's position in international education rankings is mediocre or poor. Norway is the only country in Europe where a majority of the population does not see education as an important value. A common opinion among those who analyse the global economic competition is that individuals and nations' level of knowledge is the power source number one. Importance of knowledge for individuals', companies' and nations' identity and mastery is the overall frame for this book. The education cultures in Norway and China today are opposites. My observations and comparisons during seventy years, as student, father, teacher and researcher have convinced me that Norway, and most other countries, can learn from the education culture of East Asia. In this culture, there is an enormous respect for learning and knowledge. An education system where students show strong motivation for learning and respect for teachers is the super soft power of economically successful East Asian countries. Quality of education will decide their competitive power in the increasingly global knowledge economy. The educational and economic success of East Asian countries triggered my curiosity for their curriculum roots. I found the moral philosopher Confucius, the thousand years old Imperial Examination, and a recent Chinese history of education as a key means to safeguard people's identity, while simultaneously learning science and technology from the West. I came across a number of amazingly dynamic and patriotic individuals, often poor before turning rich, and then using their private wealth to build schools and universities of quality, for the public. At the very individual level of this travelogue, I tell about how my family and I met with two elite schools in China, one international and one Chinese. Both were established by a poor waitress having turned billionaire. In my concluding reflections, I look at what Norway and many other countries can learn from China, Finland and England. The three countries' common denominator is high education quality, despite different curriculum traditions. We can take the best from each of them and create an optimal quality school for all.
