Abstract
Among the most signicant drivers of the reconguration of worldwide
higher education systems are a variety of processes that have been categorized
under the broad rubric of privatization. Within the realm of higher
education, privatization has neither an unequivocal denition nor absolute
and delimited characteristics. Its description and analysis entail multiple
dynamics, with considerable complexity, particularly when placed within
temporal and spatial frameworks (Dolenec, 2006; Geiger, 1988; Slaughter
& Leslie, 1997). Mexico serves as a useful case for the study of privatization
in higher education. is chapter looks at Mexico’s transformation from
an eminently public system to an increasingly private one. In this chapter,
we seek to understand a number of diverse strategies that have driven
privatization of higher education in Mexico and to place those strategies in
a global context.
