Social Inclusion: The Higher Education Sector in Chile and in the United Kingdom
journal contribution
posted on 2020-07-13, 14:50 authored by Francisco Castaneda, Ed BrownEd Brown, Jon Cloke, Francisco Gil, Máximo Gonzalez, Carla CisternasThe Higher Education (HE) systems of Chile and the UK are compared in terms of the
‘massification’ (Altbach, 1989) and the relevance and adequacy of the private-public
provision mix. Dissimilar, each country has tried to build social inclusion into HE
outreach at the same time as allowing participation of the private sector. Also
included in the research are a) the role of social capital as a positive contribution for
the social and economic development; b) the current state of social inequality in
access to HE; and c) an in-depth analysis of the implications of both state and private
roles over social inclusion in HE. Outreach programmes from each country, the
Propedeutico in Chile and Aimhigher in the UK, are also analysed for lessons learned.
