This introductory chapter starts by outlining the aim of the book: to
analyse and discuss the interplay between governing, evaluation and
knowledge with an empirical focus on Swedish higher education. It then
goes on to locate this aim and the intended contribution within the
wider research context and in previous studies. The chapter also
highlights some important national traits of the Swedish case and
Swedish higher education policy development, before presenting the
overall conceptual frame employed in the book and the project it builds
on. Finally, an outline of the forthcoming chapters is provided.
