This book weaves together different strands of research in the area of lifelong learning that concentrates particularly on learning in alternative settings and ways, such experiential learning and informal and community learning. Drawing upon international research, the book examines how these strands of research can contribute to each other. The contributions to this book are based on material presented at a conference at the Centre for Research in Lifelong Learning, UK, and they focus on research into key issues of policy and practice in lifelong learning.

The central argument in this book is that new ways of thinking about higher education, the new languages of its title, are needed to understand the role of universities and colleges in contemporary society and culture and the global economy, new landscapes. Over-reliance on existing conceptualizations of higher education, whether those articulated almost half a century ago in the early years of the growth of mass higher education systems or those produced by the imposition of a conceptual straitjacket derived from neo-liberal market ideology, has made it difficult to understand fully the nature of twenty-first-century higher education. It may also have encouraged a view that there is no alternative to the development of more marketized forms of higher education. The analysis offered suggested that the future is much more open. It argues that familiar categories, normally accepted as givens, are actually more fluid. ‘Systems’ of higher education, whether expressed through direct public funding or through regulatory regimes, are being eroded. ‘Institutions’, often assumed to be to be given enhanced agency by more corporate forms of management and governance), are no longer powerful actors, if they ever were. ‘Research’, often corralled by assessment and management systems, is becoming more diffuse and distributed. ‘Learning’, supposedly more focused on skill outcomes and employability, retains a more broadly educative function. The ‘publicness’ of higher education has not disappeared as public funding has diminished, but taken on new forms.
