Confronting Challenges to the Liberal Arts Curriculum: Perspectives of Developing and Transitional Countries

MCGILL PETERSON, Patti (ed.). Confronting Challenges to the Liberal Arts Curriculum: Perspectives of Developing and Transitional Countries. 2012. New York: Routledge.
This publication contributes in the field of comparative research on higher education in developing and transitional countries by filling in a specific gap in curricular content, which is implementing liberal arts coursework in undergraduate studies. The book analyzes the context, content, challenges and successes of such implementation, and further explores how curricular content is decided and how educational programs are structured.
Several authors bring in their knowledge to provide a wide scope to the discussion, thus bringing in case studies from China, India, Mexico, Pakistan, Poland, Russia, South Africa and Turkey.
This book is recommended to scholars and researchers in Higher Education as well as practitioners working to implement student and faculty exchange and raise awareness of curricular issues.
