摘要:

当代高等教育改革有两个迷思,一是创建世界一流大学,二是强化大学为经济发展服务。事实证明,世界一流只是少数大学的排名游戏,不适宜作为所有大学的发展指南;同样,大学与创新驱动发展之间亦非确定性的因果关系,个别大学创新创业的成功不意味着通则。在高等教育改革中,无论成为世界一流还是促进经济发展都是大学作为一类组织难以承受之重。未来的高等教育改革应着眼长远的共同利益,而非短期的功利目标,应通过对旧体制的“颠覆性创新”,从对于学术锦标和知识经济的迷思中解脱出来,为我们时代大学的永续发展奠定制度基础。

Abstract:

There are two myths in contemporary higher education reform: one is to create a world-class university, and the other is to strengthen the university to serve economic development. Facts have proved that the world-class is only a ranking game for a few universities and is not suitable for the development guide of all universities. Similarly, there is also a non-deterministic causal relationship between universities and innovation-driven development. The success of innovation and entrepreneurship of individual universities does not mean the general rules. In the reform of higher education, either becoming a world-class or promoting economic development is an unbearable task for universities as a kind of organization. The future reform of higher education should focus on long-term common interests rather than short-term utilitarian goals. Through the “subversive innovation” of the old system, it should be freed from the myth of academic championship and knowledge economy, so as to lay an institutional foundation for the sustainable development of universities in our era.

Key words: higher education reform, world class universities, promoting economic development, disruptive innovation, sustainable development
