In-depth ethnographic studies of universities as rapidly evolving, key contemporary institutions, interrogating in particular the fast-growing private sector
Rethinking Private Higher Education takes the university as a core, yet changing, institution in modern nation states. It offers fresh insights into the actual meaning of private' in different university contexts, contributing to a deeper understanding of global policies in specific localities through ethnographies. Essays explore how private universities were established, their context and history, and their changing business models.

Daniele Cantini is a social anthropologist, senior research fellow at the graduate school “society and culture in motion” at Halle University, Germany. He has done extensive research on Jordan and Egypt, with interests ranging from knowledge production at universities, and youth subjectivities.
