Higher education has seen a global trend away from funding and regulation based on the 'social compact' that evolved between higher education, the state and society over the last century.
“While there is considerable difference between university sectors internationally in terms of level of student fees, structural variations and the extent of state regulation, higher education has seen a global trend away from funding and regulation which were based on the 'social compact' that evolved between higher education, the state and society over the last century' (Naidoo, 2003).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
