ABOUT NEW PUBLIC MANAGEMENT PRACTICES IN RUSSIAN UNIVERSITIES (ON RESULTS OF FIELD STUDIES)
Abstract and keywords
Abstract (English):
New public management practices in prestigious universities are researched in this paper. Based on the field study — higher-education teaching personnel (HETP) interrogation — problem areas related to university managerialism policy have been revealed. It has been shown, that the administrative machine and control department extension, as well as low level of professorship involvement in decision-making destroy the academic autonomy and create a latent conflict between managers and HETP.

Keywords:
new public management, new principals of state management, research university, academic autonomy, institutional changes, social influence, conflict.
Text

В условиях сокращающегося государственного финансирования, массификации высшего образования, возрастающей конкуренции, глобализации и других мировых тенденций большинство развитых стран проводят обширные институциональные реформы управления университетами, которые определяются менеджериальным подходом. Специфическими чертами NPM (New Public Management, новые принципы государственного управления) являются конкурсное финансирование, постоянный мониторинг и оценка деятельности, составление рейтингов организаций, оплата труда на основе достижения индикаторов, поощрение контрактов с бизнесом для коммерциализации результатов интеллектуальной деятельности, внедрение систем отчетности и аудита с участием внешних экспертов и др.
