Abstract
In this chapter, we focus on system-level governance changes in higher education (HE) policy-making processes across the past 25 years and in particular the role of academics within such processes. We illustrate these changes with a specific focus on recent white papers in England and Norway, as our two sites of study. Furthermore, we ask the question: to what extent might policy changes lead to an erosion of trust among the involved stakeholders, especially from the perspective of academics? We argue that changes in the very process of policy-making in HE have far-reaching consequences for whole HE systems because of the central role of academics.
