Abstract
- The 1987 Green Paper on Australian higher education recommended abandoning the binary system. The Dawkins plan effectively transferred resources from established universities to the former colleges of advanced education. This study compares initial and subsequent performance of economics departments, using a nonparametric data-envelopment-analysis model. Although overall performance has improved substantially, further productivity improvements are required. (31 references) (MLH)
