Abstract

[The first chapter of the book introduces the intellectual starting points for the study and presents the most relevant research literature. The main aim on of the book is to explain how higher education has changed in Finland. The author responds to this intellectual challenge by discussing continuities and discontinuities of higher education from the point of view of historical layers. The idea of historical layers is discussed in relation to historical research, higher education research, and historical institutionalism. The book is mainly based on historical and sociological studies, because given the vastness of the phenomenon, research based on primary sources would not have been possible.]
