Abstract

This round table explores how universities across the globe navigate the competing demands of autonomy, governance, and political influence. Papers examine state intervention, ideological control, and the legal and policy frameworks that shape academic freedom and speech. Together, they offer a comparative look at how higher education institutions manage power, negotiate constraints, and defend intellectual independence within shifting global and national contexts.
