ASSIS, Lúcia Maria de  and  OLIVEIRA, João Ferreira de. A avaliação da educação superior no contexto das reformas e políticas educacionais. Linhas Críticas [online]. 2013, vol.19, n.38, pp.51-69. ISSN 1981-0431.

This text analyses the policy for evaluation of higher education based on the triad: expansion, democratization and institutional evaluation. The aim of this work is to comprehend how the expansion process, intensified since the 1990’s, has transformed the concepts related to access democratization and the systemic evaluation processes of public and private Higher Education Institutions in Brazil. This work also examines how the functions of this level of education have been changed over the last two decades, in order to adjust to the demands of the economic system, considering the role and value of diplomas in the relations between the production system and the reproduction system.

Keywords : Higher Education; Institutional Evaluation; Democratization.
