The Impact of Private Universities on Public Higher Institutions in Africa

his book examines the relationship between private universities and public universities in Africa, primarily to underscore the underpinning fundamental politics, systems, and mechanisms that help in the sustenance of one beyond expected outcomes. Generally, many African countries have survived from the beginning by adopting capitalism as their ideology across every stratum of human existence. That particular orientation has therefore necessitated the creation of values in nearly all areas especially their politics and economic engagements. The implication is that the socialist approach to critical aspects of human endeavors such as education has introduced a model of development that in some way encourages a laissez-faire attitude of people toward the things that would bring them to maximize innate potential and power they have. The book utilizes updated methodologies in the gathering of data for the enhancement of quality intellection.
