Abstract

The neoliberal dimensions of globalization have significantly impacted the development of global higher education through a predominantly market-driven focus. In this context, ethnic minority and indigenous higher education in many countries face both challenges and opportunities for their dual missions of offering higher education and preserving ethnic and indigenous cultures, languages, and identities. This chapter analyses the impact of neoliberalism on ethnic minority and indigenous higher education policies and institutions in three countries, China, Canada, and the United States, and from the perspectives of three development models, which represent a centralized model in China, a decentralized model with strong government intervention in Canada, and a decentralized model with weak government influence in the USA.
