Abstract

A starting point that deepens the binding knowledge between higher education and public policies, is to present in this paper, an argumentative analysis that allows us to understand why higher education can be seen as a relevant field of public policies, returning to this some analysis approaches and contributions of some specialists in the subject. Be part of the question Is higher education a field of study of public policies?

The purpose of this work is to offer, as regards the higher education system, an attempt to simplify the relationship with public policy, making clear the position that the efforts made today to achieve a binding adjustment between education Higher and public policies, urgently raise the need to define in clear and operational terms, the way in which higher education has to be incorporated as a field of political analysis to integrate in a stimulating way to the processes of development and change.

Under the framework of constructing ideas, an attempt is made to establish a position on how the development of the Mexican nation, due to its characteristics and its speed, has contributed to highlighting, with increasing intensity, the role that education should play in the processes of economic and social change, when it dynamically adjusts to its demands because, in a good part of the cases, educational policies are not usually concretely “good State policies”, and end up in some cases because they are proposed within the policy agendas public, who are subjected to the alternation and the personal fluctuations of certain actors, who seek to fragment an adequate educational management.
