This book is certainly different from previous publications in several respects. First, it is the only book to include an analysis of eight African universities based on the full 15 years of empirical data collected by the project. It is true that the data are available in the report ‘An Empirical Overview of Emerging Research Universities in Africa 2001-2015’ and as open data on the web. But this book is the only publication to put the 15-year data to work in an analysis of the participating eight universities’ status as research universities. Second, previous books and reports were published mid-project. The chapters in the second part of this book focus more narrowly on how Herana has advanced our understanding of the research university in Africa. Chapter 3 explores the role of the university in its national context. It considers whether national governments that may espouse notions of a knowledge economy do in fact provide the kind of support required by research universities.
