New Perspectives on Using Accreditation to Improve Higher Education
Recently, the priorities of higher education have adjusted; where before the focus was primarily on the financial side of education, institutions now consider people to be their main source of value and education to be much more than the production and dissemination of knowledge. Due to this, a gap has been created between decades of emphasis on financing and the undermining of the qualitative requirements of education. New Perspectives on Using Accreditation to Improve Higher Education outlines key issues that must be addressed if accreditation agencies globally are to achieve their primary objective of ensuring that universities and the degree programs they offer are of even greater quality than they are at present. Covering topics such as leadership, assessment, and sustainability, this reference work is ideal for principals, policymakers, higher education staff, researchers, scholars, academicians, practitioners, instructors, and students.

L'Afrique noire victime de ses péchés
L'Afrique noire a chuté aux grands tournants de l'histoire, beaucoup plus à cause de la nature de ses civilisations que du fait de ses envahisseurs successifs, arabo-musulmans puis européens. Elle est donc victime de ses péchés, profondément incrustés dans les plis de ses traditions. Dans une approche téléologique, l'auteur apporte sa contribution à la compréhension de l'état actuel des pays africains, mais surtout un appel à une réadaptation réaliste des consciences et des choix, visant l'avènement d'une Afrique noire réformée pour gagner.
