Hic sunt leones –When Ideas Don't Meet Policies: Italy and the Reform of Higher Education

Sažetak
In the article a review is provided of the implementation of various strategies and policies which have been introduced into the Italian higher education system. The author shows that the most significant impact of the implementation of such policies is the creation of enormous amounts of data, facts and figures. He, however, puts forward a highly sceptical view on whether the evaluation activities have actually contributed towards systemic, institutional learning in higher education policy. He concludes that the Italian case in higher education policy has shown the existence of two levels in the Italian higher educational policies: a formal one, really modern, apparently ready to change and sensitive to the new ideas, and an informal one that makes it impossible de facto to implement the norms and the laws that are sometimes made through the years. Ignoring the existence of these two levels can lead to several errors of analysis regarding the Italian case-study.
